Dave, it is a pain every time you type in BLLS and it automatically changes the symbol to BLLSE. A lot of other services have upgraded their systems to account for Pink Sheet stocks. Maybe SI will in time. I'm hoping this won't be a problem for too much longer because once back on OTC/Nasdaq SI's quote server should work again. FWIW when I want to read BLLS posts I always tick off the subject box instead of the quote box. Today's Killen Report mentions the SM agreement. Sallie Mae Solutions and Billserv.Com Partner to Develop Net.Pay ============================================= (From PRNewswire) RESTON, Va., November 22, 1999--Sallie Mae Solutions, a new division of Sallie Mae, and billserv.com today announced that they have entered into a partnership to create Net.Pay, a new EBPP service for colleges and universities nationwide. Net.Pay will allow schools to electronically present their bills to students, expanding the array of Internet-based services already offered on many campuses, such as admissions, class registration, and financial aid processing. Net.Pay will enable students to use the Internet to view and pay their college-related expenses such as tuition, room and board, bookstore charges, and miscellaneous fees. For schools, Net.Pay will eliminate costs for printing, postage, and mailing supplies. The system also facilitates two-way interaction between schools and students, increases the speed and efficiency in which payments are received, and allows students the convenience of Web access to their billing information. "Sallie Mae Solutions helps educational institutions identify cost-efficient ways of using technology to conduct business," said Tom Green, president, Sallie Mae Solutions. "Net.Pay complements our current product offerings, which include student systems, financial aid, and administrative outsourcing solutions. Today, more than a thousand schools employ our solutions, and we anticipate that these and other customers will eagerly embrace Net.Pay..." Net.Pay is the first such EBPP system implemented for the higher education market... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Find out more about multi-channel e-business at killen.com
