<<here's hoping NETP and Wall Street sees the light>> I'm with you there....Paul Allen could help make this happen <G>....did you notice what occurred when he announced that he was taking a major position in GNET? Paul Allen and his Vulcan Ventures are involved with incubating a number of large online e-commerce firms (like Mercata.com) and IMO he has a real interest in accessing great technologies to advance these efforts. I really feel that he could help elevate NETP in the investing community and allow it to get BIG faster. The bottom line is that he could help change the perception about NETP . He has SO MUCH money that this would just be a small transaction -- but one that could have a SIGNIFICANT impact on the e-commerce infrastructure marketplace. Any comments on this? Best Regards, Scott -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- One Clarification.....I had 80% of my online IRA (my larger account) invested in NETP recently. I am now much more diversified and actually hold most of my NETP shares in my outside account -- the one that is subject to taxes.
