Hi Jadrew,

<Good Purchase:> We'll see.

I agree with everything you're saying. This started out as a short term trade but the more research I did the more convinced I became that it was worth sitting on and adding to on any dip.

I believe the current price reflects incredibly agressive shorting agravated by some pretty wild earnings forcasts by an Anal that didn't know what he was doing. I don't mind making money on a short play now and then. Some of the things I look for are:

1. A PE over 50

2. An over bought condition created by hype.

3. A sharp spike well above recent moving averages.

4. A recent gap (gaps usually fill) below the spike.

5. Near the 52 week high.

6. A lot of recent insider selling. CFO, CEO, Pres., VP, Chair, etc.

I look at my list. I look at APM. I look at the shorts. I scratch my head. I do more research. I look at my list. I look at APM. I look at the shorts. I look at the charts. I look at my list..........

What happens on the day nobody wants to sell them stock to cover their positions? Ah, but this is different, a sure thing, it'll never happen. "Hi? Ma? I was wondering? Is it OK if I stay with you for awhile? I had to sell the house. It'll just be for a few weeks till I can find an apartment......."

Regards,

Don
