All,

This morning Ark Asset Management filed (which previously wasn't listed as one of the top ten institutions by Thomson) that they are holding 2.475,000 shares (or 9.5%) of Rainforest Cafe. I would imagine they bought the vast majority of those shares since the 1/7/98 drop. Very cool. They own more shares of RAIN than Lyle Berman does!! I'm sure alot of other institutions have been slurping up shares of RAIN when it dips below 11 as well.

From the 13G ARK filed today:

Richard one of my friends finally jumped in at $11. They bought another one of my high flyers after a crash and made some money. I called them to jump in again. ha John
