Low blow, and quite testy Doc. Jack Zahran another David Furstenberg? Excuse me, now I gotta call out the FBI. Am reporting you immediately to the SI police, slandiferous utterances. We like Jack, me and I do. In jest, Doc Frank. (2 docs in agreement = paradox)

Latest copy of Information Week (Dec 8 copy)has an article titled
"Y2K Stragglers". Does not mention TPRO but does mention embedded chips and gives an example of a large oil compay that assumed they did not have a y2k problem. But while testing equipment that controls oil valves in its refineries engineers inadvertently discoverd a host of new problems. Thousands of terminals that control the dispensation of oil have old chips with a y2k problem. The new y2k complaint chips do not fit the old motherboard and the new motherboards do not fit the old valves.

Later in the article it states the an oil company's greatest exposure may lie in the embedded chips that run refinery equipment.

When an SI thread loses its detractors, its skeptics, its cynics, the thread loses most of its value as far as I am concerned. When the stock's supporters on the thread elect to use the thread to discourage dissenting opinion or contributions they view as less than helpful to the stock, then the thread is rendered worthless IMO.
Long TPRO,
Mike

I don't have any Bloomberg info and if you are talking tick by tick, I don't like that either. You must be thinking of someone else especially with your Bloomberg and block trade refrences since I never discussed either. Maybe you were "stoned" when you made that post? ;)
