I was just looking at my sales of LYNX about a year ago--looks like I sold a little under 7000 shares around 4 1/4. So, I am back in the position, a little over a buck cheaper, so I've got 10k shares this time. But, also a year ago, I see that I sold a bunch of Rigel, for what would have been, reverse split adjusted, about $8 a share. And that proceeded to triple without me as of a few months ago. I don't think I've ever owned Sequenom. Don't want to talk about Tgen. That is a smallest of the three positions and I am squeamish about it. The other stock I sold about the same time was CeNeS, and I think I got a dime for it. It has also run up over the past year, but it was in a different account, and I did well to close that down. I suppose I am a little embarrassed that I still have, gasp, 5% of my money in biotech after all this handwringing. I know, I said that flotsam and jetsam would not exceed 'a few percent'. I've overshot a bit, and Mr. Market is giving me a little spanking for it. Solexa has some free articles linked on their website. Worth checking out! Finally, a reminder, that this is my thread, and if I feel compelled to do silly little confessionals and blog the hell out of it, that is what I am going to do. Remember, I work that rotating shift, and I reserve the right to have insomnia and be a spazz. Hold your tongue Dana (poor Dana holds some Tgen thanks to me and my big mouth several years ago).
