Gerald, it seems that you, Jim B, myself and a few others have had a experienced a remarkable statistical event in a long consecutive sequence of 100% rejections on IPos. In a true pure random selection scenario, it is highly unlikely that this could continue. Look at it this way, the 3 of us together should have similar results to an E*trade customer with 3 multiple accounts. We should be seeing at least 1/3 success on at least 1 IPO during a month with these many IPOs being allocated. It does not compute, 4-Bob
