Glenn, I don't have a palm pilot, and I'm still running windows 95.
Added 7-eleven Svevd @ 18 3/4...average cost 10. I've never considered this to be a long term buy thread, but I'll post this any way.
Svely, and Svevd are long term holds.

Glenn, Fuel cells. Ener! My average cost? 10!
How would you like to have a $36 billion company behind you?
>White Plains, New York, May 2 (Bloomberg) -- Texaco Inc., the third-biggest U.S. oil company, said it bought a 20 percent stake in Energy Conversion Devices Inc., a developer of alternative- energy technologies such as fuel cells, for $67.3 million.

Texaco will work with Energy Conversion to develop fuel cells, which generate power through a chemical reaction combining hydrogen and oxygen and emit little air pollution. The companies will also develop technology to store solid hydrogen.

Automakers and power generators, faced with growing pressure to reduce pollution, are experimenting with fuel cells as replacements for internal combustion engines and fossil-fuel power plants. Energy Conversion's chairman is Robert Stempel, the former chairman and chief executive of General Motors Corp.

Energy Conversion's shares rose 1 1/4 to 23 1/4. Texaco rose 15/16 to 50 13/16 on the New York Stock Exchange.

Energy Conversion, based in Troy, Michigan, had 1999 sales of $29 million. White Plains, New York-based Texaco, which had $36 billion in sales last year, will have two seats on Energy Conversion's board.

Texaco is moving into power generation and energy technologies so its earnings won't be as dependent on oil prices. Power demand is growing faster than total energy demand, Texaco Chairman Peter Bijur told shareholders last week.
