Well, I just took my ill-got gains from the California gas company (ROYL) that doubled in four days and bought my wife a painting for her birthday. Now let's see the market take that away. I am beginning to think there really is something, maybe a lot, in this Lost Hills gas play near Bakersfield--huge reservoirs of gas about three miles undergound--from which the first deliveries will begin in about a month. The whole story including an A. G. Edwards detailed report on PYR can be found at: tcsn.net and a news story in the Denver paper today: denverpost.com Of course I guess you have heard a lot of these magic gold mine stories. Was it Will Rogers or Mark Twain who wrote the definition of a gold mine, "A hole in the ground with a liar standing in front of it'?

Small potatoes award of 2000: I just covered my Qualcomm short (ten shares) for a profit of $120 net of commissions. I calculate that this will buy 148 bean burritos at Taco Bell, or 95 Double Decker Supremes. Including tax.
