Hi Bruce,

Get back from Cleveland and boy are things ugly(G). I feel bad
about the late comers but they ought to see how a 100k+ share
position takes these drops(GGGGG). Folks, we're all in the same
boat and it's time we started rowing the same direction. If you
have tuff questions, ask them in a positive manner as there are
many things that need discussing and cussing(G). I'll throw out
a few for starters......

1. The tape of the last few days......either the mm's have some
serious overhead they know about and therefore feel no need to
play fair or something is afoot within their group. I tend to
feel it is the former and don't want on the "conspiracy theory"
train.

2. When or will the WorldPass deal finalize? A) We may be waiting
on the sale of the SMTK stock to have the needed cash for the deal
or B)negotiations have gotten sticky and WP wants toooooo much of
the pie or C) Joe Murphy has found a better deal and is pursuing
that option......time will tell......

3. 4Q numbers......who knows outside the company? I don't nor do
I even have a reasonable guess. They could range from 1 million
to who knows. I do know there were some technical problems with
Cyberfax that have been remedied but I have no idea where we are at
with the revenue stream. I don't know if the minutes are billed at
a use + 30 days or not. It is an area have I have not pursued with
Mr. Murphy because I don't think that info should be for my personal
ears.

If you want to discuss please feel free....if you want to bash or
badmouth....hit the road, Jack, and don'tcha come back(GGGGGG).

Lou

Bruce, can you have somebody post today's toll for DCTC.
I hope Brad returns soon. I watched a lot of trades at the ask most of
the day and added more myself.

Bruce,

I'm with you, we will have our day. People focus too much on the daily stock price and not enough on the company fundamentals. DCTC is a much better company now than it was last fall when it was trading at $4. There is no doubt about it. I feel much more comfortable about owning DCTC now than I did back then. I know that does not make much sense with the current price, but the company's prospects have gotten better, not worse and that is always my first focus. I have been a steady buyer through the last few months of weakness, as the releases continued with positive news. The stock price will catch up, as all the new revenues kick in. It is that simple.

Overall, as a long term investor, I simply trust my evaluation of a company and live with the bumpy ride as long as the company's prospects continue to be positive. Unfortunately, most people forget that in the short term a company can do virtually nothing to effect its stock price (up or down). Market sentiment rules. All too often, people get caught up in the selling/dropping stock price (or buying/increasing stock price, depending on the situation) and forget to look at what a company is doing and what its true value is. This leads to one of my favorite Warren Buffet sayings, paraphrasing, "the only reason I look at a stock price is to see if the market is doing something stupid I can take advantage of". I think my biggest investing problem is that I always underestimate how stupid the market can be.

Bruce, the flip side of soaking up cheap shares to use for acquisitions is that fact that it may require MORE shares to close the deal, so amateur analysis (and spelling) skills tells me that it's a wash. Unless, of course, we see some affirmative price action in the interim.
