Mike, Now let me see. The futures were buried this morning. We got a report that suggests that manufacturing is slowing down. It's spun positively by "the street" from a future interest rate perspective even though bonds are down. The stock market and futures turn on a dime. Get the chickens out of the hen house! The roosters are in charge. Wayne

Michael, Would you happen to know the answers to my question below? exchange2000.com I'm particularly interested in the clearing house Fidelity uses. Thanks.

--Thanks Michael...it suddenly does looks as though I am going to survive a bit longer however --once again a winner just now paid for a loser and my account is up quite nicely today. Whew. Merck just bought Sibia, and while it is a shame that it removes any long-term "ten bagger" potential, it makes the Mike's Microcap Madness portfolio look a whole lot healthier today. SIBI was ten percent of MMM, thanks to Rick Harmon and others biofreaks. That buys me a little more breathing room--I can hang on to my ARIA a little longer (that's my stinker). It would just be happy if it stopped going down, forget going up. If I can just hang on til next year's annual meeting, that would be really great. I'd like vote my shares in person and scowl at the board of directors from the front row (:-0}
