I have been kicking a theory around and want to test it. Those of us who play BB stocks are viewed by the rest of the investment community as wild risk takers. What I'd like to know is this: Is our involvement in BB stocks symptomatic of a risky,reckless lifestyle or is it just one area of our lives where we choose to press the envelope? So, while waiting for Form 10 filing, EnviroTec,LPS details, and other news, I thought I'd create a little survey to see how we fit in with respect to other lifestyle activities. If you'd like to participate, E Mail your responses(question # and Y,N or blank) to me at GGRAP@MONUMENTAL.COM. All responses are of course confidential and will be deleted immediately upon tabulation. Feel free to leave any question blank. I apologize in advance if these questions are too personal. But I'm a numbers type and I'm really curious if a trend can be perceived here. 1.Do you engage in casino or sports gambling? 2. Do you consume an average of more than two alcoholic drinks per day (drink=1mixed=1 beer=1 glass of wine)? 3. Do you use tobacco or mind altering drugs? 4. Do you exercise LESS than three times per week? 5. Would you characterize your diet as UNHEALTHY? 6. Are you self-employed or an employee consultant with varying clients? 7. Have you travelled outside the US to countries where armed conflict has occurred within 1 yr of your visit? 8. Do you live in an urban community? 9. Do you like hard rock music? 10. Have you ever engaged in any activity(other than day to day routine) in which a failure could be life-threatening, e.g.,auto racing,bungee jumping, sky diving, ultra lite flying/hang gliding, repelling/mountain climbing, white water rafting, spelunking, etc--just a partial list? 11. Are you male? 12. Are you single? 13. Are you childless? 14. Are you under 40? 15. Have you ever traded commodities or futures or options? 16. Would you consider yourself to be a procrastinator? 17. Do you make decisions on "gut feel" as compared to hard analysis? 18. Do you enjoy eating exotic foreign foods? 19. Do you prefer action films to comedies? 20. Are you an extrovert? Enjoy. I know you think I'm crazy with this but I just gots to know. TG
