Hi All~ Yep, think you're right ....folks are out shopping, decorating, making gifts, thinking about cleaning the house, cards, and all the Holiday things we all do... SI was impossibly slow last night...I tried to come see you all, but all the SI dust was being stirred up....getting ready for all the (hopefully) big activities this next week...In fact, take a look at the old IQC charts site...iqc.com . I posted this note, and other observations on OT CHTR board awhile ago....but wanted you to know...> --->Went downtown Seattle today to shop....TOTALLY packed, and was great. Looks like people had worked so hard to get things back together somewhat again...still lots of windows boarded up, but I think everyone down there that we saw was ever so happy to just 'take our city back'....Every age was there, and people were just genuinely in a grateful and good mood, and relieved that it was over with no one terribly injured. Hopefully the merchants can make up some of the big losses from last week.<--- Thanks for the heads up on picks earlier this week, Joan and BLUE...have them on watch...BTW, how about that THCG...! Bought some ICO, so if you see anything about that, would appreciate seeing it! Also, enjoyed all the info about the Mars Polar Explorer...sure hope it comes to life soon...! When we stop to think about it for just a minute, what a Century this has been...From karosene lamps and coal stoves to sending an exploring craft to Mars...and so many things in-between...what a time to be alive! May make a bit of fudge tomorrow...wish you were all here, and I'd send you home with some. Till later, take good care, KLP
