I'm sure you know that Fred Rittereiser was the chief operating officer of Instinet when it was converted from a floundering 10 Million dollar company into the 150 Million dollar company that Reuters acquired. Odd that Lupien does not underestimate Fred to the same extent you do. if you were correct in your analysis.

And I guess you accept Optimark's internally generated PR with less of a grain of salt that you accept ATG's. No system that generates a whopping 2 million shares a day in volume is changing anything, much less "the way Wall Street trades".

When the NYSE/PHLX deal becomes a reality, and VTS volumes make Optimark's volumes to date look small by comparison, I'm sure you'll make it a point to concede to all of us that you don't have a clue what you're talking about. You gotta laugh - based on this snippet, you conclude "ASTN is light years behind in the operating, selling and relationship game. It is a complete joke by comparison." Wow. If this is the quality of your DD, then you are the one who is "light years behind".

I'm not a seller, Auric - and I am up over 200% at this point. I don't ley a 3/8 drop get me down -- don't let the price spikes to come get you down.

By the way, what do you think is holding up Optimark's IPO?? Maybe you should read between the lines rather than accepting PR at face value.
