Re: diana has a foolish notion ---

Hi Everyone!

I notice there are more form 144s filed:

biz.yahoo.com
(Also another ~280k shrs 144ed since Dec 01,'98 that don't show up on Yahoo )

This is certainly a puzzlement, with RATL seemingly doing so well.
I have an idea about it I thought I'd offer for the thread's consideration------

(I wouldn't mention this if I owned any RATL because it would seem like a pathetic example of self-delusion, but since I am currently out of RATL, I will indulge myself.)

Is it possible that the Levys, Devlin, et al are selling not because they think RATL will not prosper, but because they want the funds for some Other project/investment/start-up/???? that they believe will be More profitable than RATL?

May I suggest that if anyone gets a chance to talk to anyone at RATL who might know they could ask:
"What the heck are Levy, Devlin et al doing with the money they are getting from selling those big chunks of RATL stock?"
The answer to this question might be very interesting.

If anyone learns anything, I sure would like to know.

regards,

diana
