** OT ** Let me just make a comment on Pokemon, since it is at the top of the rankings Andrew provided. Each of the Poke gameboys is selling more, in units, than any other video game! Pokemon is a huge phenom, and it shows no signs of letting up.

The best way to play this craze is through KIDE. (Warning: I have a position in KIDE). KIDE is the exclusive licensing agency for Pokemon merchandise outside of Asia. (KIDE is also the exclusive licensing agency for WCW merchandise, so KIDE has 2 giant trends in its favor, one at its peak [WCW], and one just starting to feel its oats [Pokemon].)

Today KIDE reported great earnings per share for Q1: 13 cents vs 5 cents last year. If that kind of growth persists, KIDE is selling at just 15 times this year's earnings.

Do your own DD; I'm not recommending you buy it. Just thought I would write a little something on KIDE for my friends here in THQ land.

PS: KIDE will broadcast its quarterly earnings conference call on Tuesday, May 18, 1999 at 2:00 PM EDT over Vcall.
