I hate to break it to you John, but management is everything in these small companies, and the reason I am in it. If you don't believe in the managment, you would be a fool to risk your money by taking anything but a short position. So which is it?

John, Although you might not think so, you have been mostly negative for a long time now. But, you always qualify your negative bent with a qualifier that you are long TPRO. You also have been saying that you are bored for the longest time. But for the last week your posts on SI have been exclusively on the TPRO thread. I don't get it. The stock has not had the volume or the range to satisfy a daytrader. What are you up to? I only have two long term high risk investments: TPRO & SIMWF, both are turn around stories in the making. I post exclusively on these threads. You'll notice that right now I am the only one posting on the SIMWF thread. I happen to have analyzed the heck out of each company, and I primarily look for the negatives. In each companies case the negatives will not stand against the longer range positives. Time will heal the wounds of the scars these companies carry. The investment community needs to see that the bleeding has stopped and more than that that life and growth have returned. Both these companies had to re-create themselves and they have. Today TPRO has done something more significant than any news announcement since the PlantY2KOne release. They have strengthened their books. They virtualty eliminated their debt and fixed their cash flow problem, while increasing their growth revenues almost 700% in the last three years. They are the largest national Systems Integration company. They are now a multi-national solution provider. If you haven't noticed the number of Institutional investors in the past few months has now increased from one handful, to two hands and a foot. Short Interest has declined two months in a row. They are having their first shareholders meeting in three years and are close t o achieving National Market status. They are going to release a quarterly report with a small but significant Y2K component. And they are in the quarter were they predict the large Y2K revenue to begin. I can't in good conscience recommend that anyone sell even if the price goes below 5. It's not a loss until you sell and this is a long term play. The people on this thread are mostly longer term investors. My god man, can't you tell that we have been here for months. Why do you insist on giving us a day by day accounting of volume when we are not daytrading this stock. TPRO is only a daytrade play a couple times a month not everyday. You need to look at Netscape, Oracle, and other high volatile stocks. I'll even give you a no-brainer swing trade: NOVL. Try it out, it ranges from 6 to 10 on a regular basis. You can even short it. I have done this enough times I can't tell you how easy it is. Buy in the 6's or 7's(more likely), sell in the 9 and 10's then short... Put stops on either end. I hope you make a lot of money. JZ
