Well Dennis, that's quite possible. I'd always said that Globalstar would goof the first year of marketing and so they did. Okay then, in the absence of any better date, I suppose that's the most likely one for a Globalstar short squeeze. I'll buy 10 million of them a week before to get things rolling. What the heck, I might buy 100 million to get a decent number of them and really build some pressure. Then, when they zoom up to $10 on the short squeeze, I'll be able to buy a new house, a Cessna Citation and a nice boat. Mqurice

Memorial Day Massacre <<TAKE 2>> <Perhaps you got the day right but the year wrong? 72 days and counting for the Great Globalstar Memeorial Day Massacre of 2001> Counting down! Shorts have been fleeing in droves. Short interest is down to 20 million compared with a peak around 35 million. That still leaves a few ready to squeeze. There is even more room on the upside than last year [when the squeeze was from about $10]. The downside room to move is still zero. We have 20x the upside available now - we have to multiply by 20 just to get to the previous short squeeze starting price. So we can go 20x as high as the sky. I suppose there is the possibility that we are stuck in a singularity though and there will instead be 10x more shares issued [for creditors and new money from Q! and others]. We'll be in an incredible shrinking universe [it'll actually be us shrinking though the surroundings will appear to expand - much as the actual universe fools us into thinking it's expansionary]. Things are never as they seem. Mqurice
