<<I bought more shares to make it my new number one stock holding. I am really starting to love this stock! Better late than never.>> Great move Tech. I have been in and out several times but could not resist selling on big gains. I do not have so much, but if I get worried will put in a stop loss now instead selling. Selling resulted in a tax burden which could have been avoided since it did not hit the stop. I was not aware until recently that one can put a stop loss on calls. I homesteaded many years ago down on Dell acres. Started with a herd of 40 calves back in '93 when they were selling for less than a buck. Herd seemed to double each year at weaning time. Built the Dell herd up to way over 6500 last spring, along with a bunch of unbranded strays, so when weaning time came on March 7th the place got overgrazed. Then the plague struck with a bit of pestilence so I lost a few head. Things have improved a lot recently and it looks like a good year ahead. Still, the grass looks nice and green over here in Qland, with lots of water. If there is any room left, I may pack some belongings and set up a temporary camp. Sig
