Hi Steve, I pretty much use gtc orders on the buys and sells all the time. It takes my mind off the day to day stuff. Remember, we own the Equity Warehouse, AIM's just the Inventory Control Manager!! AIM's darned good at what it does, so I try not to interfere! Of course, I wouldn't have hired AIM in the first place if I didn't think it could handle the job. That leaves me to make the "big decisions", like what our warehouse is going to inventory for the long haul. Best regards, Tom

Hi Steve, Speaking of gtc orders, while I was BSing here, my gtc order to sell 8% of my IDTI shares at $13 filled! That's a LIFO gross profit of about 40% since early December. My FIFO gain is almost the same and is what will be reported on my '98 tax return! It's interesting to note that the Buy And Hold investor in IDTI shares would be up 36.8% since I started this account, but with AIM's assistance, I have an indicated 53% gain. To be fair, I haven't done the '97 tax reconciliation yet. That will nick that profit a bit. Thank You Mr. Lichello! Tom
