I will leave you all with these final comments I uttered back in 1998 which ring true as the night sky today in 2001.

We are the only buyers when a company warns about earnings, files for BK, gets raided by the FBI, loses a major contract, gets sued or just closes the doors...We are the only liquidity you have when the Sh*t hits the fan......so be nice..we may pay you an extra 1/16 when you need it most... http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=6697934
