OT:

Thanks for the "tip" on ELLG. I have not done any DD however I did read the link you provided and found the following:

>>"ELLIS remains the premier provider of computer assisted programs for teaching English as a second language. With the strategies and programs instituted by management now fully in place, ELLIS is situated to become a rapidly growing and highly profitable player in the educational marketplace," Rees concluded.<<

Since I am involved in a teaching program for "English as a second language" as the Technology Instructor, it caught my eye. Now don't get hyped up about a dunce like me being the THE TECHNOLOGY INSTRUCTOR. All I do is teach the basics and then work with the teachers to show them links to all the CAI material that is available on the Internet for free.

This is my first warning flag. States are broke for the time being. Schools are always looking for something cheap (read free) so my initially I wonder if at least for the current time frame is a rough spot.

Secondly I am aware of a few excellent packages that I have used in our classes. I do not know if these compete with ELLG but I will take a look. Most likely not until next week as I am heave into baby sitting right now and then Mothers Day and you know the drill.

Finally, since you gave me ELLG I will again mention VISG as my premier speculation. I believe I mentioned it once before as I put my FSTW profits into it to add to my position. I am into this one and have doubled my $ in 24 months not to mention that I have more than made my initial investment on shares I have sold. They must be doing something right as they are still losing money!!! <G>

cheers
