Jack, That is an excellent piece of advice. Kind of makes you stop and think, just a short while ago there were folks saying they thought selling in the six dollar range was a good idea. See ya, Jack jack@jackm.com jackm.com Jack's Picks PS: Nice name...

Jack, Couldn't agree more with your post on leaving APCO shares alone and not watching it daily. As someone who is rapidly moving from a trading mentality to a more sober approach I want to say that I have endured several painful days recently watching stocks soar that I bought for the right reasons but sold due to nothing more than impatience. Yesterday this change in heart paid off as TISX, a stock that had been in a trading range for weeks during the recent tech rally blew out resistance and went up 15+% in one day. I almost sold two days ago, then forced myself to clear the order and leave it alone. Because it's a GOOD COMPANY. I love the analogy someone on this board made about APCO - it's like having a CD that goes up 20% in value every three months, all in one pop. Phil
