It looks like you didn't invest in the Pcln scam.:-) No. I had used their service (don't really expect to again), and didn't like it. As one who searches the web for value (value which includes payoff for time spent looking), Priceline did not impress me. I did, however, get bit by LHSP -- by guiding part of my mom's IRA into that. Th new rule should have always been the rule, and is the new rule: she won't own any stock that I or my brother doesn't also own. Otherwise the attention to the business behind the stock just may not be there. I still like Astropower. Evergreen Solar (ESLR) went public recently, raising $42M. My knowledge is that they are now using that money to build manufacturing capacity. Market cap is about $77M, but product and therefore meaningful sales will arrive in "the future". Worth keeping an eye on, though I don't know how to assess their product quality other than by sustained sales growth. Randy
