I love the "best of breed" catch phrase. Remember the ZITL Y2K cobol code-conversion fraud? They claimed they were the "best of breed" as well.

Whenever I think "best of breed" the first thing that comes to mind is "dog"...be it a canine or a stock.

Dale,

Bill Wexler would gladly take you up on the opportunity you represent since every knows no Nigerian would ever scam you.

Unfortunately, he seems to be a bit tied up right now with so much of his money buried into shorting a stock like REFR at the wrong time and facing margin calls.

Tell you what. If he can find the courage to COVER at a minimal loss ahead of his partners, he may be able to offer you 10 grand for just 10 million. Of course, if his partners find out he covered instead of letting them cover before him, he may be indisposed.

Real sad that he chose to run with such a sorry lot!

Oh, and if he shorted today, he made no real profit but I did.

The NT and LU "they can't both go out of business....can they?" arbitrage.

Dale, I also picked up some NT today (I already own LU at these depressed prices).

I am - again - being the contrarian. Though I could be early (again) and they may continue sliding - a scenario where they both fall in the shitter forever just doesn't make sense to me.
