Humbly report, Jim, welcome to our humble y2k gamblers' home!

My humble main bet is on:

Subject 17449

But, just in case, I've got a humble side bet on:

Subject 16266

I remain, humbly dreaming of being right for a change, by the mail slot of the FBN mailroom, virtually near the first arch of the Mala Strana side of Charles Bridge, where they serve great hot rum, gratis for me, yours truly, gamblin',

TPRO (I strongly suggest you refer to the following two threads and judge it's validity for yourself)

Jim - TPRO [soon to become TAVA] for 1998 and beyond. Y2K work is an adjunct to a growing core business.

Dear Jim,

One of my favorites (and Jeffrey Mitchell's):

www3.techstocks.com

I remain,

SOROS

ps also have some eggs in SYNTEL, TPRO, IMRS, PTUS and here are some other stocks my bats like:

Ultra Petroleum (UP.v) -- massive land with massive GAS
Nortran Pharm (NRT.v) -- next approval and it will fly
Velvet Explor. (VLV.V) -- loads of oil and Indian wampum
Cyberguard (CYBG) -- best firewall in the business, perhaps Y2K adjunct soon -- must just overcome the Stewart curse, however
Adrian Resources (ADLRF) -- good gamblers bet -- biggest copper load around -- when a major wants it, it will fly
Naxos (NAXOF) -- the bet of the century -- bought load at $1.00, but am holding for $100 or bust
Unisys (UIS) -- good takeover candidate
RFID -- penny speculation -- head man has wits

pps all above is garbage and dreams -- no investment advice here -- I love to write fiction and fantasy

Jim,

I would be remiss not to give you MY #1 Y2K pick for 1998 ... the envelope please ... Information Analysis Inc. (NASDAQ: IAIC).

My compelling reasons for owning this stock are its very low market valuation ($90 million), outstanding management, long-term clientele of US Government agencies, exclusive fix for Computer Associates' Fortune 1000 customers using CA's fourth generation language database management products, alliances with Pinkerton, ManTech, CACI International, Data Systems, GTE and Signal Corp., huge insider holdings and UNDERfollowed (for now!) on Wall Street.

For additional info., feast you eyes on this SI folder (a classic!):

Regards.

Elliot

Jim,

Did you see that Y2K shooting star today soaring across the NASDAQ horizon ... I hope you read message #8711!

IAIC was up 20.5% today (+3 1/16) to 18 on twice their average daily volume.

Terrific Y2K publicity yesterday in a Computer Associates press conference and press release. Numerous big brokers were part of this conference including Merrill Lynch, Salomon Smith Barney, Hambrecht & Quist and Advest.

IAIC has an automated remediation tool, UNICAST/2000, that is being used for CA's 4GL's and is also a remediation service provider alone and in tandem with its numerous, well-known partners.

Regards.

Elliot
