Eric, that's an excellent study - to put things in perspective, would you be able to run the numbers on a few of the less internutty, but well-knonw stocks, such as MSFT, CSCO, IBM? Just curious to see if this ratio of spending the shareholder's money at about the same rate as sales is unique to the dot com's? Actually, it would be hard to imagine MSFT and CSCO insiders cashing in close to the amount of their
sales, so maybe some stocks with market caps. a little lower, and more similar to those on your list, would be better choices.

(I think it would be worth sending that study in to Barron's, or some other pub. - they could definitely wrap an interesting story around those numbers.)
