Scott: WOW! NERX has been something else lately. I took a look at their lifetime price history just now. All I can say is that this in a 'GutCheck' AIM stock. Who among us either did or would have held on for this ride since the early 90's? Regards, Impressed in Industry

Hi Scott, Here's what long time AIMer Phil Samuels sent me regarding your post: ------------------------------------------ The AIM Badge of Courage A recent post on the Silicon Investor AIM BB hit right on what I consider THE crucial intangible element of AIM ... Courage to hold a position. Scott "SS Heatwole", in writing about his recent big gains and AIMing in high flying NeoRX Corp. (NERX), said that, "Thanks to AIM I have had the courage to hold on this long. In my pre-AIM days I would have taken my profits and headed for the exit long ago. Thanks Mr. L!!" A good friend of mine, Tom G., has a recent similar history. He had bought Geoworks (GWRX) and Superconductor Technologies (SCON) at low single digit prices, happily "dumped" them at 50% profit, then watched in horror as they soared over 1,000% in the next few weeks. Tom has now converted to AIMism, enjoying big profits in Illinois Superconductor (ISCO) and others by not selling too soon - fully appreciating the value of AIM's intangible element of Courage. Best Regards, Phil Samuels AIM Class of '80 -------------------------------------- :-), Tom
