>>And looking at the latest 10-Q balance sheet, it looks to me as if TLC has absolutely humongous long-term debt, which cancels out the seeming advantage of positive cash flow.<<

jbe: I agree with you about the risk not the kind of company I would invest in [neither short not long]. Your note brings an interesting point: from my recollection (about 15 10Q's later) the debt is convertible which reduces the risk of default but will result in dilution!

Thanks very much for the additional input!

Pancho

PS: I must remind everyone that the type of "1/2 hour screening I do on stocks" does not constitute thorough research you must complete your own [this is not for you jbe I am just concerned about some people who may think this type of input can replace doing their own homework which obviously is not your case]
