One thing you should know about me. I am a strong Graham and Dodd fan. I believe in deep analysis and value. So, for me to take the argument away from fundamental analysis...is big. Jeff, could it be that abandoning your long held belief in value and fundamentals in favor of "the emotion and the trend" is the only way you could justify being long just about any stock in this market when your former self would be very rationally running for cover? Just a thought. Bob

Jeff- Thanks for the info, and the call for good manners from NyBellboy and taxikid and others. I called public relations for Egghead, and was told that CEO George Orbin "is on a road show in NY and Boston...having one-on-one meetings...will be back at the end of the week". The option strike price is 10 1/2, which explains the dip downward. That should be over after this Friday. I know that negativity appears on lots of these boards, generally propagated by the short sellers. My fear is that it makes others reluctant to share info and opinions.
