Len, speaking for myself, I put money in ELON for two reasons: 1) It appears to have an enabling technology with high BTE-a potential Gorilla pre-tornado. 2) There is momentum to the stock price. I don't think we have a Tornado yet, so I am breaking the rules of the strict ggamer, but I did so with CREE. I was too early with GMST last year, NTAP a few years ago. Never regretted that! I was late to the tornado with QCOM and SEBL and have regretted that. For me, and this is just my own psychological game, I can sell a stock when I find I made a mistake and bought early, but I have a hell of a time chasing a stock up when I realize I was late. Also, I find it easier to add to my early position as the stock goes up even after the tornado has begun. So, I CAN chase a stock if I am already familiar with it through a "starter kit". Make sense? Perhaps only to me. <g> PS: I sold most of my WIND today and doubled up on ELON with the proceeds.
