Al...G means Grin... or VBG= very big grin... Talking about Global Marine...Go up the coast past S.B. on the 101 to Point Conception about 1 mile off shore is a Global Marine jacket up unit.. it was floated up from Africa to do abandoments along the coast for the different oil companies. These wells are under water with no platform over them..When they cut off the well heads some have fishing nets all over them..I believe the drilling was done in the 60's.. My software is nothing but a pencil and a ruler..<G> Stay dry this weekend Ed

Al I post this to you and all LONG TERM INVESTERS............. Since its raining in Southern Calif..With nothing to do but, fight over the TV or this machine, I bring this question out for discussion. What is a Long Term Investor? When Nextel moves out of this correction and moves to 40, 50 whatever.. When does a long term investor Sell? If the stock pulls back to say 40? Well what if the stock pulls back to 30.. say the general market corrects and it pulls all the way back to 25..Does a long term investor stay the path? I'm interested in this thought maybe for some of the young investors.. This is for everyone even for those that don't post.... Ed
