Gosh Floyd, You've opened an old wound with RPCX. Roberts had moved from NASDAQ to AMEX some time ago and then proceeded to fall asleep. I certainly did everything an AIMer could to make that one work, but decided the boss man was taking way too much out of the company at the time relative to their performance.

So, to make the investment story complete, I sold every last share several years ago. Some analyst must have read it on the Bulletin Board and immediately began promoting the stock! I think it was more than a double by the time a year had gone by from my selling all my shares. So, after nursing it for about 5 years, it finally started to realize its potential - just after I'd dumped it!

The pain of watching it on my ticker list finally go too much and I deleted it from the list! My one major fault that I've had as an investor is not getting rid of dogs and cleaning house. So, the one time I broke from this tendency, RPC came back and bit me!!

I'll have to look at a chart and see just how much money I'd have made if I'd stuck with it! I'll also get out the cat'o'nine tails and give myself a good whipping!!!

Painful in Peshtigo
