Just got back from Vegas and read the news, Frank. I am so glad you were there to receive the award. As the first person to join you here, I know the crap you have waded through since the thread has started, and I know that it was your persistence, in the face of it, that has made this thread work.

This thread has made a lot of people a lot of money, and, more importantly, provided a place where reason and sanity could prevail on these investment threads. Enjoy your recognition, and then get back to work. I notice that there are three people posting here over the weekend that I have on “ignore”!

UF,
I've been following this company since 1995 and have listened to the majority of the cc since then. It's the EXACT SAME management and I promise (girl scouts' honor!) this is a team to be trusted. In 1996 (?) when the whole sector fell apart, they were extremely clean about fessing up to the situation and giving the appropriate guidance downward.

When this management states that gross margins will improve each and every quarter for MANY quarters, this is not a team talking out of their rear end (ala Jim Carey?)-- This is a management team of utmost integrity.

I believe!

DB

Uncle Frank, congratulations! Your being given the award partially restores my faith in human nature. I'm delighted that even a large group can sometimes agree to do the right thing (assuming that the vote wasn't limited to G&K posters and lurkers).
Regards, Lynn
