Funny thing about PCNA. When you look at LOIS, and then at PCNA, you think what????? Hasn't helped that stock though. Needs some whores to tout it. It's a fast mover though....when it moves.

PCNA news of prospective IPO for Attorneys.com sounds good. buying 2 5/8 here. It ran to 3 on much less news than this just a little over 1 week ago. It should do as well as LOIS, which is trading at 44 right now. PCNA's float is very thin, only 1.5M

For a stock that's trading at 2 3/4 with the prospect of the Attorney.com IPO, PCNA's fundies look fairly attractive:
