>> Not long ago VISX had a $6.4 billion market cap and their product had clearly crossed the chasm. I would not have thought of that as a shiny pebble.

Caught red handed. The only thing I can do is make up a definition that will support my obvious inconsistency.

Shiny Pebble: A company that displays some features generally associated with Gorilla Game characters, but which, due to size, limited history, or contrary traits, can't be confirmed as Royalty or Simian in nature. Typical SPs are recent ipo's, unconfirmed story stocks, or small companies with market caps <1B, but in some cases, mid and even large cap companies may qualify as Shiny Pebbles.

Does that get me off the hook <g>?

Actually, I screwed up, but don't tell the gang, willya?
