Boy did that note get messed up....should have used a Pentium II I guess! Anyway, I was just saying that with the number of analysts and market pickers in today's market, I would have felt kind of foolish posting my gut feelings, particularily based upon Leland's looks and tone of voice rather than on any concrete facts. Plus, more often than not, I am wrong but when I am uncomfortable with a CEO, I feel better watching from the sidelines. The one time this approach did work for me in a big way was with MEMC (WFR). I rode that from 24 to 50 and sold because at their annual meeting here in St. Louis, I sensed something was wrong. The President resigned a few weeks later to "pursue other interests" giving up options worth about $24,000,000 if I remember correctly. I sold and the stock has dropped ever since. Not really genius but sheer luck! I also said that you are due for a break right about now. Stay away from that Prodigy group...by the way, I wonder how the Constitino picks for 97 have fared? Since I dumped Prodigy a few months ago, I miss the updates. Best regards and let's turn things around NOW! Chip
