We are immensely disappointed in you. Therefor we are liquidating 3/4 of you and buying some potatoes. We are very happy with the abundance of curly fries this has brought us. Thanks, jb

Larry, OK, so you bought QCOM, hope you did it yesterday. Let me tell you how I look at this. You sell 3/4 of your holdings in GNET. This is November, you have a capital gain for tax purposes. I don't know how old you are (yes I do, your profile says 36) but I have money in the market for my retirement, so I have several years to go (hopefully many). I can take this money out of GNET now with a 1500% gain (in my case) put it somewhere else, play the market and in 5 years, if I am lucky, I could have another 400%. Now that is darn good. or (Stolen from Graystone) I could leave it right where it is. Not pay capital gains for tax year ending 12/31/1999. Let GNET go to work, get teamed with Charter, get the broadband thingie going. In 5 years. BOOM I will have another 1500% +. I know what my choice is. At least you kept 1/4, so that we don't have to get the eraser out an wipe you off the list. ~Sarkie #25 and holding!
