<font color=Red> NOTE NEW CLOSING DATE/TIME FOR LMNE IPO CONTEST Due to the unexpected volume of submittals, all entries must be in by 4:00PM on WEDNESDAY, 10/25/00, whether final IPO pricing is complete or not. [Note: Sector's entry of 99 1/2 may be changed up to that time as it was not a true entry.] It has been suggested that sorting by price would be helpful and that will be considered after entries are closed.

<<BP: on the fine print>> <<If winner is a no show, there is NO FREE LUNCH for closest entrant in attendance!>> Sure you want to do it that way? With so many people taking guesses it is VERY likely that the WINNER will not be in attendance at the meeting. If you do it the other way around it will be added incentive for entrants who are "close" to the winning guess to attend the meeting. I for one don't mind paying for my share of the dinner for the attendee with the closest guess. Either way, you don't suppose our SI and Yahoo MRV threaders are so cheap that this contest would provide a disincentive to attend the meeting or an incentive to attend incognito. I just flashed on a scenario where the contest is announced just before the meeting adjourns for lunch and two people stand up, me and the WINNER. By the way do you think the meeting will be in Chatsworth or Woodland Hills as it was last year. Probably will need a bigger room this year. duff

Whether IPO final pricing is in or not. ** Closing price of LMNE IPO on 1st day of trading. All entries converted to decimal (sop to era of decimalization). Winner gets lunch bought if in attendance at MRVC annual meeting, estimated to be in early December 2000, Chatsworth CA, to be paid for by other entrants in attendance. If winner is a no show, the closest entrant in attendance will win. THERE IS A FREE LUNCH!!! (note change) Sector gets loud plaudits for extensive research even if finishing last in contest. Duff and tboneshelby are eligible to BOTH have lunch bought. Entries will be presented in price sequence eventually.
