I pulled this information from the ISLI thread where someone had listed it from Motley Fool, thought group would be interested.

This is based on buying $10,000 worth of each of the stocks at the closing on 12-24 thru year end. Not a bad showing for the top stocks, hope it continues

DON'T PANIC

The Front Cover of The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

The greatest danger to the prudent investor is impatience. This company is forming a base. The non-Y2K revenues will carry it into profitability for the first time in this past quarter, and the Y2K revenues will be trickling in slowly at first. We can expect much more in the next three months but it will be three months till the next quarter is over. It will take movement of the stock price to get more investor interest and it will take more investor interest to move the stock price. I think this will happen soon, but have no prediction as to when.

We are all frustrated with the speed of this development, and many have a large stake on the line. I'm frustrated because the lack of marginability has kept me out of several profitable trades because I refuse to trade TPRO. I suspect the same may be said for Skipard and Tokyo Mex. We are also frustrated with the, "I know this stock is a scam and I'll prove it as soon as I do some research" type posts.

Well, you can rest assured that Skipard and TMex are not out of the stock, (I said "frustrated" not "stupid") and they will be back on the thread in due time. Meanwhile, keep your eyes open, and bring back to the thread all the relevant news, positive or negative, that you find, and this will continue to be the excellent resource that it is. Refrain from engaging in personal combat with those who only seek argument for it's own sake. I've followed this thread for six month and I can always tell when someone has said something negative without support, it seems to take about 150 posts (including the ones referring to the dubious parentage of the offender) to counter it. Simple requests for factual support of a position should be enough.

For those that are new to SI, personal exchanges are best delt with via E-Mail or in the Clubhouse.

Finally, to violate my own rule on personal exchanges, to Sandie. I know what "Survivor Sandie" means, and yes, I think you should move on from that moniker. Look hard and you will find that everyone is a survivor, they have all stared into the abyss at one time or another. The knowlege of the certainty of our mortality is what raises our churches and topples bad governments.
