I think most people have a mis-expectation on some issues ...

there are some issues destined to blast off -
but the issue needs to have several things to go for it, in the order of importance
1) in a good sector (fiber optics ...)
2) with a good underwrite (CS First Boston, Goldman ...)
3) low float (exception: Corvis ..., but nothing larger than 5 mil)
4) fundamentally a sound company, at least have a sound concept or a sound business model ...
5) buzz on the street (actually depending on the issue, this might be #1,2,3 or 4)

we have 3 and 4 but not 1 and 2
which makes it a steady climber but slow getting out of the gate ... so the way this one is behaving is actually quite normal ...

dude, can I write for your website ... <ggg>
