Jon-

The suits and ties thing was a bit of a jab, I'll admit that, but my point was the Forbes article if you read it again, as someone else pointed out, made more of what you OFFER than any real experiences. Their only support was a Barron's recommendation. I don't really care if you guys just expanded your suburban Chicago offices and got nice oak furniture as that means absolutely nothing to all of us out here. I do however care about execution and representation of my order to the MM's. Joe Fox's comment about the confirmation printers printing being the sound of the "cash register ringing" struck me as rather flippant and misdirected.

Anyway, I appreciated your candor regarding penny stocks and BB stocks. I am certainly sympathetic to the difficulties you must experience. You probably know that Datek does NOT trade BB stocks and repeatedly states publically that they never will. If you do wish to improve in this area, I would look to E*Trade. They do a marvelous job with BB execution and in pinches, they have repeatedly called down to the MM's on my behalf to put the heat on and force the MM's to make good.
