Jim, although I had the chance to get in on ICGE early on, I just stuck with CMGI instead of looking for "the next CMGI". Probably an error of the same magnitude as DW declining to invest in eBay. But I'm always "the glass is half full" kind of guy and I am pretty jubilant about CMGI's prospects. And, of course grateful that I had the sense (luck?) to ignore the warnings of other family members who operate more from a traditional investment paradigm. Really threw caution to the wind on this one. But I figured I had a safety net of sorts, knowing I could always get a day job as a bagger at the end of the grocery check-out counter or some such thing... Sometimes that approach works, other times you get your head handed to you on a platter. This time, it rocked. Like all the planets suddenly aligned themselves in a once-in-a-lifetime celestial event. No pain, no gain.... All we have to do now is keep those asteroids out of our orbital path. Mark
