Sounds good.<g> In the mean time MERX doesn't seem to be doing bad today in this kind of market.<g> It is up 7.57% on volume of 795,000 and B/A at present 10/10 It probably gets some help from the fact that revenues for the 9 months ended 2/24/01 were up 40% to $153.8 million and net earnings went up to $24.4 million from $3.9 million apparently from improved gross margins and that leaves them with a current PE around 5.8 They are selling slightly above book value (1.26 of book)and reportedly have $5.47 cash/share. It doesn't sound bad to me. Caveat: I bought some myself in spite of this market.<g> Bernard
