Dear JDN,

Perhaps this will cheer you up a little. You gotta hope that at some point, ALYD's alliance with CPWR will mean something of magnitude -- ALYD correct and CPWR test. We long passed my cost basis as well. I always claim to be an investor and not a trader when this happens. Some call me a blind old fool, but I just don't have the stomach to sit and watch stocks daily. It's like a stock lottery with several drawings. Every time I decide to pull quotes, I get to see if I won or not. The losers I count as entertainment expenses -- kind of like your bar discussions. Sure I would rather win all the time, but a night of gambling in Vegas is worth the entertainment value even if you do lose most of your money. Look at it as entertainment, and perhaps you won't feel so bad. Tell yourself you could be smoking and drinking in one of those bars every Saturday night stuffing $5 bills in garters. Add this up for a year, and you might be just even with your losses (depending on how much you have in stocks vs how aggressive of a bill stuffer you are). Oh yea, the link:

ps rub that crystal ball a few extra times and let's hope that MINE is that one in a million -- make up all your losses for eternity
