This drop hurts a lot on paper, but its not so bad in reality.

While the price is down quite a lot, the total volume is fairly light.

Folks on the Yahoo! thread report that relatively few blocks
larger than 5000 shares have traded today and that NO blocks
larger than 15000 shares have traded today.

What that means is that there is no institutional selling.

What I think may be happening is that many individuals
are getting hit with margin calls and are being forced
to sell at these low prices. I expect we'll see the
institutions come in late this afternoon (and/or tomorrow)
and start buying shares from nervous investors at
these sale prices... then the price will rise again
and things will return to normal.

In fact, I expect we will see the price run up over $50/share
as we approach the Q4 FY00 earnings announcement in April.
