Sorry to keep belaboring this,b ut if I were the journalist writing the story I would definitely have sighed in disbelief in order to get more and better quotes out of you, not to get anything dishonest, but simply to get you to wax as eloquent as possible, to get the maximum drama of your amazing good fortune todl in yoru own excited words, and I would indeed tell that story--but I'd also go find equally upsetting stories of margin calls etc. It's the nature of the trade, of good storytelling. (Uncle Frank is probably cringing as he reads this--he doesn't trust me anyway because I'm a writer--but remember folks, I decided not to write about SI for just this reason). I'll be shocked if they only tell the good stuff.

All in all it will probably be fairly positive, but it sounds as if they're focussing on the investors and what happened to them. It sounds like a human interest story. Are they also looking at the fundamentals of wireless? (Never did think much of Money Magazine as actual stock guidance anyway. It's not IBD)
