Thanks, Beans. Yeah, I'm disappointed too. I think that there's an "old boy" aspect to HELE that is producing a substantial drag on shareholder results, and I think that it is a "top down" problem. Reminiscent of a 1950's mentality. Nevertheless, the stock does have potential, and I'm hanging on. Seems to me that the shareholders ought to raise hell about the composition of the Board of Directors. There is a real lack of integrity in the current make-up, and in an executive administration that would promote it.

I get my Value Line information from the local library -- the library has closed for a couple of months but I might have another source. I'll do some digging and see what I can come up with.

I'll post your response on the Yahoo board. Thanks for your efforts.

Steve

Beans -- someone on Yahoo confirmed that Value Line has raised the HELE timeliness rating to "1" from "2". Haven't seen it with my own eyes....
