Apparently an average of 25% of US shares are held by foreign investors, and I am sure I am not the only one to be offended by this decision. Well, there isn't going to be a sell off in CMGI as a result of this particular caveat, although there will be other walls of worry that continue to make this stock volatile. What you're postulating is that there are no replacement US investors that would be comfortable taking your position as custodian of a goose that lays golden eggs. Not true, IMO. But there's a possible way around this. Get adopted by a US family! BTW, aren't you, Bob Craig, and I triplets that were separated at birth? ;~) Mark A. Peterson

Rene - before coming down hard on CMGi, I would wait for an official explanation. If is is strictly company policy, an earnest lobbying campaign begun by non-U.S. investors might have a desired effect. Good luck in your quest. Jim
