Hi Tom: While you're out on the lemming hunt with GNSS, I gathered up some more powder (for my lemming gun) with a sell today on COMS. As you know this has been my most active holding with AIM. After 2 months I've had 12 trades, a gain of 54% in value and own 3/4 of my original share position. The cash portion allocated to this guy is more than triple my starting point. I only wish the other 6 stocks I own were as active. Then I could have some bragging rights as well as the rest of you! I'm just now beginning to put together a summary spreadsheet for my basket. Only 8 or 9 weeks of history, but it sure has been fun so far! Regards, Sleepy in Sugarland ps. Glad you made it through the snow! We used to make the 6 hour drive from Mpls to Milw about 5 times/year. Some of my most stressful memories ever are on HWY 16 from Portage to Oconomowoc, late at night, -10 temps, and blowing snow, with a sleeping wife and baby in a 1980 Datsun. It's amazing how stupid I was 20 years ago. Never again! I'll fly.

Hi Tom and All, I see this is the time for yearly performance reports. Aim has been good to me! Total return for 1999 is 86% with a 46% overall cash reserve. Tom, can you give me some direction on how to find out how GSF works? I know very little about bond or gov't securities funds. From what I see GSF is at a low price point and has a great return. I have money for the boys I would like to park there until they help decide on a stock to purchase. Have you ever put some of your AIM cash reserve in GSF in order to increase the yield on the cash? Just an idea! Regards ssh
