Hi Michael - ??? I've searched and failed to find anything to account for today. On Yahoo! there is some speculation re fiber optics and/or some Lucent contract news. Could be anything! One of the frustrating things about this investment is we are always in the dark. AINN started doing business with two new CLECs last quarter, but we can't be told who they are. AINN was involved in a major DSL rollout last quarter, but we don't know who that customer was, nor what role AINN played. The Lucent arrangement provides promise for AINN, but we don't have any idea how much promise....etc,etc,etc. So far, AINN has been an 'on the come' story. Each year seems to bring failure to meet top-line expectations expressed in the prior year, and repeated growth projections for the current one. Frankly, I don't even know why I'm still on board, but I have finally seen a somewhat reasonable return on my two year investment. And I have stubornly held to the opinion that this thing will break loose soon - maybe this is the time. I plan to talk to Mr.Keaton this week if I can.
