Some want to lock in part of their profits, Steve. This IPO has the potential to be like nothing we've seen before (and that can work both ways); plus the unusual issue of the large stake retained by Coms. Much unknown. The media hype on this has been unprecedented. It will be a fascinating day; that I think we can all bank on.

Best.

......VVVVVVVVV (hangin' on to it all, just because I like the potential)

STEVE,

i have way more than any reasonable person would put into an overhyped IPO. I took this position to take advantage of the speculators and it's served me well. Time to make that money work for me elsewhere. I'll add back to may position in the early summertime all else being equal. For now I'll take my profits and hold the remaining 25% and see what happens from there.
