Yeah, I've been here for more than 2 years now. Bought some at 13, and then, foolishly averaged up a few months later at 27+, only to see the stock fall to 18 within a week's time! There was something odd about the way it all happened (the quick run-up to 27 and the sudden fall to 18) that I began suspecting that the management was playing games with genuine investors like me. Since then, I have noticed similar things happening a few more times (run-ups from 13 to 18+, followed by the release of bad news, followed by the inevitable journey back to sub-13 levels again).

I have absolutely no trust in the management of this company. All I want to do is to break even at 20+, and get off this one. But that is not happening. And it looks like we are headed back to "lucky 13" again here....

At some point, I will have to stop "watering this weed" (to use Peter Lynch's expression) and just GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS!! I just want to complete 3 years (by April 2000) before doing that. Think of it as self-flagellation. I want to punish myself so much that I will think a hundred times before investing in a company like this again!
