I wish more of the book value was tangible instead of goodwill and intangibles. Tangible 1.794/share Price/Tangible 2.280 Price/Earnings 38.123 using the earnings for the TTM ending 31 Dec 06. Looks a bit too rich for my blood. I've also started looking at the return on net tangible assets averaged of the previous 4 quarters based upon something I recently read. For ALLI this is 4.73%. I don't know what a "good" minimum value is, yet. For comparison RAIL is 96.97% and MMM is 58.96%. // marc
