Brian, OT *** OT Glad to hear about your MSFT. This is LT hold for me. BTW, I'm reading the book "Rule Breakers and Rule Makers" by the Gardner brothers. In it they discuss an investment in KLAC that disappointed because they had bought near the top of the cycle and didn't realize there was a cycle. This reminded me of the depth of understanding available here just by paying attention. It's no guarantee one will make the right decision, but at least one has more facts than the Motley Fools had. [The book is about 50% good stuff, the rest is sophomoric prattle. I recommend it for LT hold investors] Gottfried
