Hi Terry, When I sold a few shares at $9-1/4 a couple of weeks ago, I didn't expect that to be the end of the selling activity for me. However, it has for now. If the darned stock retraces much further, I'll have to "recycle" some of those $$$ and buy a few more shares back.

This issue has had huge volume all along the way and it's hard to predict just where there ISN'T resistance! If semis keep looking healthy, then maybe it will continue to rub off on IDTI.

Yes, there's good news and bad news regarding fees and such. I was a Prodigy Money Market BB person when they were a freebee service and it was fun and a bit of a free for all. Then they slapped an ongoing fee on the service and suddenly it got very quiet. Quality of posting went up while quantity went down. However, finally the "Prodigy diaspora" got to me and other posters there. I packed up as many friends as I could and we moved here to SI.

Guess what?! About 6 months after we got here SI imposed a "lifetime membership" but at least grandfathered all earlier members. It seems to me they then have raised the fee a couple of times.

While all that was going on here at SI, YaHoo started its free for all. I've only posted once on Yahoo and almost as soon as I hung up the line I started getting a mountain of new junk mail. That seemed to be way too much of a co-incidence. I've not gone back since. If there's been a link from here to there that was direct, I've sometimes read that, but otherwise I stay away. Not enough time to sift all that stuff.

I'm not sure how many others went through this same sort of history, but SI seems to be a pretty good home right now. One thing that sets it apart from the way Prodigy ran their BBs is that they are available for free on a "read only" basis. There's so many more "lurkers" around than posters, that I think this is a very nice feature.

Best regards, Tom
