The individual investor gets screwed again. Just could not get through. And then when you did, did not get a conformation. Hopefully, this will teach them a lesson. I got tired of listening to the Wal-mart music on the phone! I bet the big money had no problem. Full service brokers had no problem supposedly.

Wow, what a bunch of E-Traders here! I shared the same frustration; was able to get logged in and read my messages (which took forever), but could not enter a trade. I entered an order last night which allowed me to pick up a few more shares of AXC at $3. But was frustrated in not being able to get in this morning and buy some QNTM when it dove to the $27's! Last time this happened to me it actually worked in my favor. I wanted to get in and make a sale on some options that had suddenly become real valuable right after a very favorable earnings report. I couldn't get in after about an hour of trying at home, took off to work, logged in, and by the time I got my order in, the price of the options had gone up another 50%. Got lucky that time; I guess you win some, and you lose some.

Also, I was a little behind on reading posts, and want to say that it was very refreshing to read what the "lurkers" had to say about their investment in AXC.

Best of Luck to all,
Wayne
