<<If they're losing money, the PE is meaningless>>

... no disrespect intended Charlie, but that is a very weak response ...

... if I held onto SUNW from the mid 50's to where it is today, I would have an enormously difficult time selling it ... at any price ... be it 15, 11 or even 6 ...

... this begs the question of whether or not you or others who have held on have analyzed your strategy on buying and holding, and what that might or might not mean to you in terms of future investment decisions ...

... I suspect that this applies to you, QwikSand, JDN, mephisto and others on this thread ...

... what can we learn from all of this that will help us in the future? ...

... just because I got out early does not mean that I do not identify with all of you who have been hurt ... in this specific case, I decided to do what many of you wish you had (although maybe I am wrong about that) ... I would like to hear from all of you as to what specifically you have learned from this experience ... even if you believe that buy and hold still makes sense ...

... respectfully, Ken Wilson

note: I will be away until Sepember 9 with no PC access - thank God
