Anyway FWIW let's all take it easy with the "superlatives" this Q and keep expectations, whisper numbers, etc... where they belong... LOW<< J.D. - I'm with you on this one. While it is encouraging to receive reports that product is moving well through the distributors, we did get those same reports last quarter. Let's try to keep our feet on the ground, so that when the financial press is looking for a hyperbolic earnings estimate for this quarter, they'll have to use Rocky's 'raised estimate from .06 to .50.' They won't care that it was sarcastic. I'd be pretty happy with earnings of .08. But I wouldn't expect anything from .06 to .9 to move the stock much. - Allen
