Given that DDIM is priced at approx 15 times expected earnings of around $1/share, I would think that you are about to be slapped by a bit of reality. 1. DDIM will be very lucky if they make $1.00 next year. Quarter after quarter the analyst's estimates are downgraded. They will even have trouble making this year's number of $0.38. Remember that they will have to be audited this quarter. A lot of their recent accounting fails the smell test. 2. Their whole business goes away early next year. Thus they should sell for a considerable discout versus the rest of the market. A p/e of 15 means that the company can earn it's market cap over 15 years. If your business goes away in 2 years, you should hgave a market cap closer to 2 than to 15! 3. What else do you think lurks out there that may be announced in the near future?? DDIM lives by hype. If they have any news that can even faintly be considered "good" they release it.

Ron, Your fantasies are in full swing now. Better buy lots of ddim and say a prayer or two. You are in a serious state of denial. Facts rule, not "auras". Wait, let me read my tea leaves and consult my astrologers. They say elevators won't work in two years Ron. What are us shorts to do??? Very short and very profitably awaiting march year end statements that should clearly expose the bs DDIM has been propagating for the last 12 months of missed earning and general hype bs. IMHO, respectfully submitted for your consideration, Wad
