Bill, <<Whenever these dying stocks have a little temporary upside volatility due to short covering, the ever-faithful come out of the woodwork with fresh speculation and insults for the short sellers>> For example, check out the Information Analysis (IAIC) thread, a piece of crap second only to Zitel in its inability to get business while it does schlock-financing after schlock-financing and capitalizes software development through the end of the 21st Century (I exaggerate, but not by much). The stock moves up a bit on a couple of general Y2k stories in the news and the thread starts looking like Zitel's six months ago--"big move coming," and all that junk. It's beginning to look like a lot of Y2k stocks will get some hoopla on the bogus assumption that everyone has waited until the last minute to fix their problems. I certainly hope so. Best -Steve
