<<ratl seems heading down to 12>> I'm not too concerned with the recent pullback to the current 12 5/8 level...it seems perfectly consistent with the 3-4 week cycles that have been playing out in the stock price since the low in late October (pushing up 10-15% and then retracing much of the gain before restarting up again). Check out the 4 month chart linked below: iqc.com It looks like we probably have short term support at 12 - 12 1/4. I'm currently long RATL (initial position taken in mid December at the recommendation of a programmer friend of mine) and am looking for the bottom in this pullback for the chance to add a little more. Of course all of this technical analysis mumbo jumbo goes out the window if we should see some big news develop : ) Erich
