(LOL!!!) When we were little children, our mommies didn't tell us to not accept candy from strangers. But she did tell us that we were "mommy's smart little boy". So when Hager, Edelstone, and other famous people explained to us that we had a fool proof way of becoming rich without having to work hard, we bought the story hook line and sinker. Actually, some of us got off the bus at decent prices and have money in the bank. But those were the guys that had some smarts. We're the Remnant (aka Ramnant), what you get after you take a large group of naive mom and pop types and remove the ones that had enough sense to not totally fall for get rich quick stories from strangers and to use stop losses. Being the remnant, we're pretty special. We have the ability to see the silver lining on any kind of cloud. In fact, we're happy that we can buy more stock than we could afford before. It is kind of weird seeing a stock trade at $7.50 when you were totally sure that it was going to be at $1000 by now, but that doesn't mean that we were wrong, just early. (LOL!) Anyway, we're going to ignore or spin every piece of news that comes from the industry's lying trade press because we think they're paid by TeamDDR. In addition, we're going to ignore articles that come from the mainstream press because they are either paid by TeamDDR or their view of the world is screwed up because they read the stuff written by TeamDDR. Any time Intel, Samsung or Dell says something not completely indicating that RDRAM is the wave of the future, we're going to interpret in the most positive for Rambus light that we can. And so on. -- Carl
