Gary and All: Rockhead's AOL trades were disguised by his typical hype. On Feb. 25 at 12:26 PM he said: "Just shorted AOL" That day AOL opened at 120 and closed at 119, he could have sold a bit higher or lower than that, but unlikely since he trades are all reactions to actions. He missed getting the high of the previous day. On March 5th he covered at 10 AM. The stock had been down to 112 the previous day and closed at about that. But the next day it bolted up 3 and 1/2 at the get go. That is when Rockhead covered as I checked the price right after his post (115 & 1/2). The stock opened at 114 and ranged to 116 and 1/2. To get a 5% profit he would have to have 6 points free and clear after commissions. Given the above it is more likely he only made 2 to 4% (3 to 5 points). He fudged. In any case, the poor guy needs a job and is having trouble with lunch money and a place to sleep. So who gives a damn. Maybe he can get a job as a pooper scooper for the big bull. He'd like that. Lots of public exposure, smelly, and full of crap. Regards, David S. Long on Intel, Iomega, and Neomagic

David, It's too bad that we can't visit this summer (Georgia is kind of far), and Rocky is the only one I'll meet in NYC unless there are some other posters living there. Does he really look like Harrison Ford? I hope you're right about IOM recovering as it is a major part of my portfolio. We need some good news to move the stock and announcements have been scarce except for the ambulance chasers announcing their daily deadlines for the class action suit. IOM swings between 8 1/2 and 9 3/8, yawn.. Wake me up when something happens. SR
