INSP is holding up rather well in this Enron inspired downturn, one thing I am hearing that I would like to ask you or any of the other posters on this board is that, well to use Bambi Francisco's quote from her Net Stocks column today

""Several issues are darkening the mood of American investors," wrote Morgan Stanley's Byron Wien. The biggest issue is that accountants will have to be tougher on companies, he said, "and that is likely to have a negative effect on earnings."

If that is true, and an atmosphere of no more accounting gimmicks gets going, which long term is great news for the market not to mention the country as far as I am concerned, how will INSP fare in that?

My view is that with no debt, and with the conservative path INSP has been taking, it may become more attractive to investors in the short term and possibly the long term. Is anyone aware of any accounting type "gimmicks" that INSP employs that may make it look like a bad risk in this environment? Also, what is your assessment of INSP vis a vis the new atmosphere demanding more accounting transparency?
