Per my press release and letter to the board of directors of Aventine (see link below), I am working to preserve value for Aventine stockholders. To further this effort I encourage all stockholders to indicate your support by sending an email to aventine.stockholder@yahoo.com. Please indicate the number of shares you currently own. Such support will help bolster our case with the US Trustee and/or the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.
