ANALYST SCIENTIFIC METHODS

I would suggest the methodology in this case is something like:

1) Boss calls and says: "we want to buy a lot of CIEN
before the end of the quarter and want the price down"

2) Analyst: "OK, boss"

3) Analyst: "would 15% in '02 be OK? Account weakness
in Telecom sector. That might fly."

4) Boss: "yeah"

And, as the English say, "Bob's your uncle"

Namaste!

Jim

Reichers,

If they were getting figures or guidance from the company, we would certainly know about it.

I'm sure you have heard of the new Federal rules on disclosure.
