You know what I say Dave. You have to go with what works for you. Most everybody's personal situation is different along with their investing style.

RE: SWTX - never heard of it before. At a quick look . It's exactly the kind of company I like to look for. IMO nice bolt on for someone, someday. Thanks for the Dig. I've added to my watch list.

I still own little micro cap TAYD in the portfolio. 3 month chart corresponds to the Richter scale of the last quake. <g>

Dave Nice call on SWTX as a SITT pick. That was quick. Almost to quick. I just had it on my watch list. Got any more names :+ ). I'm like an elephant when it come down to SITT names. Like they say, an elephant never forgets. I wish I had bought some 40% + premium.
