I would think the management can manipulate the figures to ensure acceptable per share data.

I WANT TO SEE SALES GROWTH, NEW ORDERS, NEW CUSTOMERS, AND MAYBE SOME INDICATION ABOUT PARTNERS.

Good luck.

Diluted loss per share was $0.26 for the second quarter -- A one-cent improvement in loss from last quarter.

Nice dialog you two had going there, almost compelling, almost believable. Your reference to whisper figures threw me. They were right on, but of course I thought you meant profit the way you worded it.

1. Change the business this quarter to "Customer Relations Portal"
2. Changing the corporate name now to Aspect Communications from Telecommunications
3. Changing to a two-president approach to lead the way

Couple notes on being believable: use more than two principal dialoguer's, use a few actual numeric measures for analytical readers, reference some of the bad with the good -- Devastating loss of market share last year coupled with some VPs systematically selling off their options and how Jim C came back as president to save his company and has brought in proven VPs. I have always believed Jim Carreker could save his company, but he's leaving way too soon.

Strategy: Stop order. I won't lose more than a point off 12, and if you happen to be right I'll ride it up, but I doubt it. I'll bet I "stop out" tomorrow. I was in ASPT at 6.50. ASPT is nicely priced for channeling.
