Ken,

Diesel is always a little more expensive here. Doesn't make a lot of sense for most cars in the midwest unless you want to let them run all day during the winter. LOL. Thats efficient.

Buying some NXTI this morning. Not for everyone but they are growing nicely and their biggest quarters are coming up this summer. Seems like management is trying to get the company noticed. Low float. The negatives are gap down below and recently was a pick by one of those guru guys. Kind of like if Sergio had his own website. Seems like these stocks have a tendency to make huge moves.

Joe

Ken,

I think I have learned a little from all your great TA analysis. I picked the most recent gap for NXTI this morning and it filled. They had more news today and people sold on it.
