I would like to know how one can read *SO MUCH* into a statement stating that
we (Atari Corp.) are working on a project (in this case the TT)?  In order
for one to get the full scope of the conversation, one *MUST* look at the
entire GEnie transcript (available for download in the GEnie files area).  If
you don't, it is akin to walking into the middle of a private conversation and
interupting....

I've seen this "we're not going to believe any statement you make" feeling
for the last couple of weeks (ever since we started talking about new
products we are getting ready).  Basically the entire company is being
called a 'lier' when a new product is mentioned.
