Hey 49er. There's gold in them thar hills I'm told. Actually I'm into Palladium. Seriously, I just wish Mr Li didn't have so many outstanding shares. I'd feel better if he did a 1000 to 1 reverse split.;-) Btw For the last several months I've been buying mania IPO's. Then starting this year its been small cap tech and Bio's. Hey, I live in Bio-tech valley!

Ole 49r, ----- "Frankly, I find PCCLF (modeled on CMGI) and the ICGE models so very compelling for one reason: they are vehicles for furthering access to knowledge. And not just any ol'access, but IMMEDIATE access, i.e., access upon demand, driven by individual initiative, being THEEE most powerful motivator of seeking for acquiring knowledge ever observed. This is one of the reasons why I personally believe PCCLF will go far; the simple reason that they are focused like a laser beam upon a target population who has had almost every kind of knowledge doled out, restricted or otherwise impedimentarily obscured. And all these repressive restrictions have been for one reason: control of the many for the benefit of the few." ------ I agree with your point and think its value shouldn't be underestimated. The culture in China and elsewhere in ASIA has caused most people to lead severely sheltered existences. I expect access to knowledge will be a force that will cause every family to do whatever it takes to have the internet in their homes. It will seem like magic to them. I believe the growth will be nothing short of explosive. It will be like a gigantic dry sponge sopping up a large wet spill except the sponge is so dry it will "thirst" beyond what most imagine. I have been to this part of the world and seen their existence. It is hard to imagine how resticted their access to information really is. JMHO, Paul
