***Correction of Post***

In my post # 7994 above, the posted article wrongly attributed a quote to Peter Mardahl. I received an e-mail from Mr. Mardahl via the webmistress, in which he states that the quote was wrongly attributed to him. I apologize Peter, I only re-posted the published article. Everyone on the thread should be aware that published articles often contain errors. Here's the gist of Peter's e-mail.
------------------------------------------------

The article
techstocks.com
incorrectly atrributes this quote to me:

--------
Peter Mardahl of the University of California, Berkeley,
summed up one view in an Internet newsgroup posting: "It's
vapor right now, but if you want to sell other vapor against it in 1997
you better have damn fast vapor."
--------

Those words are actually those of Burkhard Neidecker-Lutz, of DEC.

In the usenet post referred to, I stated that I was reposting
words written originally by Burkhard Neidecker-Lutz.

Could you please pass this on to the author with the request
that he be more careful about attribution in the future?

Regards,

Peter Mardahl
