Just a few possible scenarios: -What if BLD signed with either GM, Honda or Toyota as another partner? They would like an Asian partner though it's not necessary. -What if Honda signed up as a strategic partner on the portable power side? -What if Daimler shortly comes out with it's Necar 4 with the methanol reformer shrunk down to the size they want it? -What if we see either Honda, Volvo/Wolkswagen, Nissan or Mazda (owned by Ford) come out with fuel cell demo cars this year, using Ballard fuel cells? -What if another city/cities start(s) a fuel cell bus demo? -What if NASA signs a contract for a space mission? -What if the Canadian Government buys 4 submarines from the UK and retrofits them with Ballard fuel cells? -What if we see major progress this year on the gasoline reformer? -What if the US and/or the EU passes legislation giving fuel efficient vehicles a tax break and/or puts a carbon tax on gasoline to provide incentives? -What if Daimler starts demo testing it's Nebus with a major city or two? -We should see the Georgetown Methanol bus this year. -We should see the stock split this year. These are the things that in my mind are interesting, not if we see the first profits in 2001 or 2002. Food for thought.

Hey I wouldn't mind a week with Firoz Rasul. If it wasn't for him you would not be making some big bucks. He even says Ballard's stock price is too high. Are you psychic? How many shares am I short? If you believe in Ballard so much, why is it giving you a headache? Just sit back and enjoy like I do with Best Buy. The shorts can short Best Buy all they want, say all the bad things about BBY all they want. I know its undervalue at 0.5 times sales. But if they don't believe its their pain and my gain. Another one of my great short picks was Iomega at $10 now $7. Those Iomega Fools. Sony and partners will kill them with the HD Floppy. All documented in the BBY thread. They sure have been quiet over there lately. Don't worry Ballard won't go anywhere until they do another equity financing. cl >>>CR is giving me a headache, I'm thinking of giving him/her the "Sid Turtleman prize for being most cynical while shorting a stock." First prize is one week with Firoz Rasul (CEO of BLD), second prize is TWO weeks with Firoz!<<< Answer. None. I have covered calls.
