Don, I don't think there are any longs left in the stock. No one is posting long. If my private mail is any indication I think they all got out with me at higher levels and are waiting for the expected pullback to enter their long term positions. Some switched to short in the high 30's. Someone has to hang around and harass the shorts, he, he, he. cdaiseyPhD@how-its-done.com

No personal tirade. I don't know or care whether NOPT succeeds in the long run. I don't short stocks with a five year horizon; Generally if I am short a stock for more than a month, the short has gone awry (I started my NOPT position on 7/12/99). When a stock goes from 15 to 40 in a very short amount of time, there has to be a far more compelling reason than, "George Gilder says it's a good stock" for it to stay at 40. I put my money where my mouth is and I was right.
