JMS - Just realized something that might be of interest to the thread... I bought this stock because it was a Cabot Market Letter pick, and because my technical indicators recently flashed a 'buy' signal. I didn't realize until just a day or two ago that they make implantable cardio defibrillators (ICDs). What's this significance of this? Well, six months ago, I almost died of ventricular fibrillation. Fortunately, my wife was there and called 911. My wife (a PE teacher) and my neighbor performed CPR on me until the EMTs arrived (7 minutes), and they were able to pop me back into a normal rhythm. Now I sport an ICD myself! Back to running and racketball... (Did I mention it was a Ventritex, not a Guidant model??? Sorry, I didn't know about Guidant six months ago!!) Loren
