Luther,

I was playing the "opposites" game with my daughter the other day. You know, what's the opposite of hot? Answer, "cold". What's the opposite of happy? Answer, "sad". We were getting along well. Then she asked me...

"Pops, what's the opposite of cheese?"

I was really puzzled. She was smiling when she realized she had stumped me. I gave up.

She said proudly, "mouse".

Well, let me ask you. What is the opposite of volatility???

My answer is stability, something that the SanDisk stock price has never been able to achieve. I never asked to have it both ways, as Steve suggests. I would take a broader shareholder base and a lackluster 50¢ daily gain for the next 200 trading days over the peaks and valleys of the last many months.

I still vote for a stock split and an influx of informed individual investors enthusiastic about SanDisk's flash products. It's easy to get hooked on SNDK once you see what their technology permits. The gut wrenching volatility keeps the individual investors away, even those not yet confined to walkers and disposable personal hygiene products.

Cheers!
