SRV (Service Corp. International) is the IBM or MSFT of the Deathcare Sector with I believe over 33,000 employees. I'm dying to know what you think of them. Am I the only morbid investor out there?

HairyWho?
I picked up some LWN shares yesterday. IMHO LWN is a real value at this level. I was watching LWN before Service Corp made the takeover offer which was rebuffed by Loewen. The news that some Institutional investors were in Canada the other day in order to convince Lowen's chairman to sell out probably will not affect his determination to remain independent. As far as I'm concerned independent or taken over there's alot of money to be made in this company. The insider buying you referred to must be option related since the price is just under $20 according to insidertrader. You know the old saying the only sure things in life are Death and Taxes. Hmm maybe I'll take a look at H&R Block and have two sure things in my portfolio.
Good Luck
Bob
