Ike, ASPT is in my bag. Nice company, good history of growth. Has been beaten down too much IMO. Call Center player along with LU and NT, but changing business becoming more of a software customer relationship management outfit. I like how ORCL has down well in this area as well. They have hired good people away from ORCL and HWP. What do you think?

Parting shot..Stock market and internets Horoscope.. <<send to me through PM..>> <<What about the Internet stocks? These took off last fall. Some stocks rose an unbelievable 1000 percent. Neptune, which rules marketing and advertising, entered Aquarius, and investors suddenly wanted stocks of any entity that was in these businesses. With the Lunar Eclipse falling on the degree of the spring Neptune station at 4° Aquarius on the 28th, we may see a renewed interest leading up to that week. But take profits here, too. A scan of 38 Internet stocks shows that the Leo-Aquarius and the Taurus-Scorpio axes are the most prominent for sensitive points in their first-trade horoscopes. Thus, the Saturn-Uranus square will afflict many of these charts just as the Uranus-Vesta opposition did last summer. Recall how these stocks got hit then? It is likely that they will give back a portion of their enormous gains between now and the fall. The semiconductor and software groups will not be afflicted, so these stocks should hold up better than most. Two tech bellwethers, Microsoft and Oracle, may pull back a bit. It is not that the charts get hit hard. It is simply that they are no longer as well-aspected as they were earlier. Both have Midheavens at 11°-12° Aquarius. First, they benefited from the transiting Jupiter-Uranus midpoint that was moving over those degrees. Then Uranus transited over. Both stocks moved up because the companies announced earnings reports that were way over estimates. With the beneficial passages over the Midheavens past, and the Saturn-Uranus square 3 degrees away, the announcements probably will be less rosy than in the past.>> ggggg message, just for fun.. I don't take this seriously neither do I expect to take it any more seriously in future.. good fun though to read..
