** FOCS ** has some real potential now, Eric. I am especially pleased that OrbComm put out the release. I think once people DD FiberChem, the deal with Coca Cola Enterprises and now this impressive merger deal, I think there is a terrific chance of appreciation for FOCS shareholders over the near and longer term. On the action today, it looks like there is some stock to clear out then hopefully we can go higher where I think this deserves to go. Lots of buying but some remaining chunks of selling to get rid of. MORE DD ON ORBCOMM MERGER: From the release.
