I would say that type of allocation tells the story of devine things to come. Be careful what you wish for.

Bong - I don't doubt your sincerity, but if that is true, Etrade's system is totally out of wack. I got DJ'd in the two accounts I IOI'd and I only asked for 50 shares each and yet you asked for 200 in 3 of 3 and got 600. I am shocked that they would allocate more than 50 shares in any one account if any other 50 share requests were denied. I'm definitely going to call Etrade on this tomorrow. Seems the fair thing to do if they had excess shares to allocate would be to give everyone who wanted shares 50 and then lottery the excess. Thanks for the heads up.
