Ratdogman, on uncle AL I back your stance regarding his standing up for a sound monetary policy. However I have some reservations seeing him "talking down" the market and shaking off any newfound confidence. His comments were milder than I had expected. Still the market reacted harsh. Too much "Greeny Astrology" IMHO (aka the old "kremlin astrgology" of the cold war). Too little substance.. Regarding the Dems trying to attach Bush to Enron debacle I'm not surprised. I'm only surprised to see people inside the glasshouse throwing stones, having learned that former treasurer Rubin was another one of Mr. Fisher's callers. Not only that, Enron people seem to have courted the Dems also. Can only say that it might backfire and rightly so. Usually I don't take a partisan position in US politics but after seing Daschle's class warfare rhetorics and accusations I now certainly do know where I rather NOT want to stand... As an investor I usually side with the ones opting for lower taxes and less regulation. rgrds CROSSY

re: IVAC IVAC looks quite good in the current context. To me it looks as if they finally are ready to ship a couple of LCD sputtering systems this year. Wasn't easy to get them up to desired specifications if you look at the press releases and the 10Q/10K disclosure. Defence links might be a nice catalyst shortterm (Night Vision, LIVAR, photonic gar). If SDI becomes reality then IVAC will be a main beneficiary. But mid term most important for the firm IMHO is their newfound expertise in compound semiconductor devices: PHOTODIODES. I love those tiny detectors (all my photodiode stocks of 99-2000 did very well back then: MSCC, FCS, API, OSIS, PKI, METHA/STLW). And IVAC has a model that supports 40GHZ. Right now they are pretty alone (apart from JDSU) in this speed range which is a precondidition for OC-768 SONET and native DWDM applications.. best rgrds CROSSY
