MB - DB 17:19 MINDARROW SYSTEMS SAYS SALES FOR YEAR GREW TO $1.6 MILLION. That doesn't leave much for executive salaries, but maybe they each get a free joke arrow with the head semi-loop in the middle of the shaft. Regards, Don

Besides being mu favorite trader, FTHL is my largest position. I sold my shares from 6 1/2 to 7 9/16 at 8 1/4 Yesterday and bought them back at 7 15/32 Today. SSB out with a list of Their A rated bonds of Telecom companies Tonight at FTHL Yahoo board. FTHL has 17 of the 20 largest Telecoms as Their clients with NTT as the biggest client. NTT said a while back that They would use acquisition if necessary to gain market share in the west. According to balance sheet FTHL has 1.3 billion in cash and also generates good cash flow from selling capacity to Their cable network.

Mike, A few observations about the election and the Supreme Court decision. In my mind it's impossible to know for sure who won Florida. There was a ton of political spin, a lot of cherry picked hand counting, illegal ballots tossed on both sides (that were clear in intent) etc... Then there were other issues like understaffed districts, the early call of a Gore win etc... that influenced it. The thing I am certain about is that after 30 seconds of the first day of hand counts it was obvious to me that without standards that were defined prior to the election (like Texas has) the process was seriously flawed and certainly biased and unfair. I think we wasted 5 weeks. I demand a recount of Supreme court votes. Who were the 2 that didn't have a problem with the process used and often changed midstream during the handcounts? :-) Wayne
