You and the rest of the herd define a Super Bowl as a game in late January. The only time the Niners haven't made the playoffs in the last 14 years was 1991, and that team would likely have given the Redskins a run for their money. Regrettably ;-), they failed to make the playoffs because their usual 2 automatic W's vs. the Falcons ended up L's. That's my little Super Bowl. Clinging to reality by a thread, Tom

Michael, welcome back - SI just wasn't the same. Saved up all my questions - can you please comment on what (price range wise) you think will happen to the disk drive makers, the semi equip makers and the networkers (COMS specifically) ? How bad do you think it will get before it gets better ? Thanks, Dushyant

Mike, what do you think of the action in NRGN. Obesity compound max tolerated dose trials halted because of toxicity concerns, biz.yahoo.com, and a Bear-Stearns downgrade whacks it to 13 3/4 the next day. I sold my second half at 20 a few weeks ago, as part of a general cash-raising push after the um, volatility, started in the overall market; I will bite at this price if the downgrade is due solely to the obesity thing, and there are no other major concerns... since they've got many other things they're working on. I've started a NRGN thread, too. techstocks.com Bought a first third of PCYC (pharmacyclics) yesterday at 22 5/8, also, and picked up some more SFAM @ 25, 25.75, though there is serious risk from AMAT and major Asian exposure. Cheers, HB
