I have known Barry and his father, Marty, for over

I have known Barry and his father, Marty, for over 20 years. I was 1 of 5 investors invited to the Baltia Christmas party, and I was 1 of the 2 who attended. I have Igor's and Barry's personal cell phone numbers as well as their personal e-mails. When my father in law took ill, Igor sent me herbs he obtained from Europe designed to help combat cancer. When my father-in-law passed, Barry came to his wake. I call Barry and/or Igor on a weekly basis...sometimes they call me. I am not an employee of Baltia, nor do I get paid to promote them. As a matter of fact, more often than not, I am asked not to post what we have discussed. When I do (or did) post, I did so very cautiously so as not to jeopardize my relationships with Igor and Barry (Anthony and Russ Thal at Baltia are regular readers of the Hub) When an announcement hits Facebook or the website....90% of the time...I discussed it with Barry, Igor, Anthony, etc. and pleaded with them to consider the shareholder’s and "feed them something". I coordinated my group's letters to Senator's Schumer and Gillibrand, and I have copies of their responses to us on my wall at my office. I and members of my group have made numerous trips to JFK and have visited Baltia HQ more often than I can count.   My group has purchased every share we own exclusively through private placement...that is, directly from the company,.....over 80 million shares...none purchased on the open market.

NOT ONE BASHER individually or as a group can come close to what my group has done or has been  exposed to over the last 2 ½ years.  Add them all together and throw in Starchaser, madghost, troyal, and 4295hawk, and the sum total have not had 1/10 th as much contact with the Baltia team as we have. Frankly, the basher’s claims have no meat.  They don't say anything.....they just repeat the same thing over and over and over again, or attack any posts that actually might supply information. I truly wish they would say something of substance......positive or negative...but say something that can be considered useful........

Empty bashing....yes, definitely.  Empty pumping....not from me. I try to release information to build a cohesive team of investors, maintain (a realistic level of) hope, and shed a little light on things that those inside Baltia say they cannot say. When the time comes to celebrate, I want to celebrate with a group of positive people...not whiners, pissers, moaners, criers and complainers....they don't deserve it.  Frankly, I am hoping that group sells their shares and is gone well before we make it through gate one. 

I read Thursday's ridiculous posts......the "bashers" were writing so fast they couldn't remeber which country was which, nor did they take time to think things through.  Yes, madghost, Greece is bankrupt, but there are citizens in Greece that have money and don't want to invest in their own (bankrupt) country.  You really don't need to strain your thoughts to figure that one out...................  

I will continue to make my calls and maintain my close relationship with the Baltia team, but I won’t be sharing the information with anyone outside my group…not on the Hub, nor here.  From now on you will be left to obtain your information on your own or from the group of sad sacks that have taken over.  I am hoping their continuous and relentless pessimism over the next few weeks will shake up those who are straddling the fence and clear out all those who don’t see the glass as half full or half empty, but rather see it as completely empty.  Maybe it is time to go. 

Keep in mind that for every worn down pessimistic shareholder who sells their shares at 2.4 cents there is a new, vibrant, optimistic shareholder who gladly buys those same shares at 2.4 cents. So if you have lost hope or do so over the next few weeks (or months), please give your shares over to those of us who still believe.  Again…I am looking forward to celebrating in the near future with a group of happy, positive people who deserve to celebrate…………………
