Ben, I was offline at the end of the trading day and didn't see this, though I don't know what I'd have done about it, if I had. I have left a message for Bill Matthews about it, asking if he'd address the issue in either a hotline or the next newsletter. I had bought at one of his recommended prices for this stock and of course, he didn't know that they had worse earnings than they had reported, when he recommended the stock. I am wondering if he still recommends it, feels we should average down, or if he feels we should bail. I don't know if he will address it but I rather feel that it's the responsibility of someone who does recommend stocks to follow up, especially when there is surprise bad news like this. So I'm hoping he will do that. Given that trading was halted and it did not reopen by the end of the trading day, I expect we will see an even LOWER price on this stock on Monday. Maybe much lower. I'm rather sick about it. I'm pretty new to Bill Matthews' recommendations, but I've had very bad luck with the few I've chosen. Linda
