Yes diversification is the key to any prudent investment strategy.
However, from reading your post of yesterday and today, it some how shows through that you have none of TPRO shares, rather I taste envy in your voice for those who indeed hold a large claim to this co.

Have you noticed that no one is selling ?

Rob... Your investment philosophy is very conservative which means you will always be in the game. However, your style is very similar to owning a mutual fund where gains are limited. The giant money made on Wall Street is NOT in a mutual fund. I know some very serious players that had IOM margined to the max and knocked it out of the stadium. TPRO has that possibility. As you know, it all comes down to "what happens". You will look like a genius if TPRO fizzles and a Pussy if it explodes. Simple as that! No preaching from anyone on who has the best style, only time will tell.

Rob, you can expect to be flamed because your posts imply false information. For example, you state: "Positive earnings and the signing of new contracts will be the key signs, in my eyes, that this company is for real." But you do not tell your readers that in fact TPRO has signed new contracts and announced them:

"Our total engagement count now exceeds 25 clients covering more than 60 sites. New clients include Cyprus Amax Minerals, Kennecott, Unilever Foods North America, and Ivax Pharmaceuticals among others. While many clients are still in the pilot stage, developing cost models for their 1998 budgets others are accelerating dramatically their activity. Unilever Foods has tasked us to complete the assessment and analysis phases on their U.S. and Canadian plants before the end of November. A similar engagement with Ivax covers a number of domestic and international operations with a completion target of January 1998.

In the past three weeks, the company has received orders for more than $1,500,000 of PlantY2K One product and services, and expects to close up to another $2,000,000 in the next 30 to 45 days. These orders represent primarily initial inventory and assessment tasks, and include little remediation effort.

As a raw measure of our activity level, we are in various stages of negotiation with a large number of multi-plant organizations that cover approximately 3000 plant sites. These include both domestic and international operations."

How's that for Contracts and Revenue earnings. We are all waiting for the big May 98 3rd quarter announcement. Hey and guess what, TPRO is doing better than they expected and now will show Y2K Revenue for the quarter ending Dec. 31, 1997, so February 1998 is a big date. Oh did I mention their NMS standing to be followed by contract announcments (OK, you caught me, this is only rumor for now but my source hasn't lied to me yet: 3 out of 3 so far)!

Anyway, this message is not a flame, it is just an example of when a statement is made as you have, it is important to back it up or qualify it as speculation. Anyone doing their DD would have known that TPRO has already announced many Y2K contracts and revenue from their PlantY2KOne Tool.

Best Regards,
Jack Zahran
