Hi Gary,
Thank you. My Dad was the Big Boards stock guy, pouring over prospectus's, reading all that annual report hoopla, and following the guru's - very successfully I might add. Growing up, I thought Warren Buffett and Louis Rukeyser were just relatives that I'd never met......
As that stuff bores me to tears, I enjoy hunting for little enviro-techies, etc. ( ESWW for example ), that my engineering expertise suggests have a chance - if they can get past the CD whizzers and stock manipulating MOFOs out there. Occasionally, I stumble across other situations, like HLSH, that simply make common sense. So, I either buy some or watch them for a while. If you don't cruise the PinkSheets pinksheets.com now and then, you'd hardly ever notice them.
HLSH just made a lot of common sense. The medical/healthcare community is real sensitive to arseholes making their industry look bad. So, someone or some group generally comes along and bails them out of their foibles.
Dot.Coms and energy stocks, on the other hand, can go to Hadez in a hand cart - and the only people who care are the common stock holders and sometimes the authorities.
John :-)
ps: IMMHO, AVHC and BMKS are some of the next mini-micros to kick tushy and take names.
