Interesting that there are no posts today. You would think this is tracking Terns stock price the way its reacting. Or maybe the Coms cable modem news also had an effect. Any responses or are we licking our wounds? Whats in store tomorrow?
After reading some of the exchanges, one of our members sent me an email saying he'd been reminded of an e.e.cummings poem:
plato told
plato told
him: he couldn't
believe it (jesus
told him; he
wouldn't believe
it) lao
tsze
certainly told
him, and general
(yes
mam)
sherman;
and even
(believe it
or
not) you
told him: i told
him; we told him
(he didn't believe it, no
sir) it took
a nipponized bit of
the old sixth

el; in the top of his head: to tell
him

Speaking of which, Terayon took the Gilder Report off its website.
As for COMS' @home LevelII certification, doesn't CMTO already have it? Do you think the Street didn't realize this?
Here it is for those who may have missed it last July:
