Frederick, how about inventing a Smart lure to catch the trout in the Shields River? After NXTL hits the century mark I'd pay to go to the Smart Dude Ranch and catch some of those fish. The issue of running out of phone numbers is a serious one and that's the reason for the recent acceleration of new area codes. All the telcos are faced with the same problem until new area codes are added. In the old days a family had one phone number. No more. For example, my wife and I have five, count 'em, 5. Am I a sucker for advertising or what? Please don't ask me for my telephone number. :-) Add to that the myriad password id's on the internet, my car's keypad number, the house alarm, atm and credit cards, and my head's spinning. While I currently suffer from old timer's disease, if I ever get Alheimers I'm in serious trouble. Maybe I ought to have all the numbers tatooed on my arm. On second thought I don't do well with pain. Arnie

As a kid a played in about 100 TableTennis tournaments. Two of the best players were John Quick (Florida) and Jeff Smart (Michigan). We had a saying about them: Smart is quick and Quick is smart, but Smart's not smart & Quick's not quick. Jeff Smart was the Valedictorian at Rochester Adams High School (Madonna went to school there). Sounds like an interesting article in IBD (up to 40 Million PCS users by 2002). That's not very far away, is it? Get Smart, Get Nextel! Mike

Frederick, agree with you on Nextel, but live in a remote area where Nextel service is unavailable,so cannot get the same hands on feel as you. There will be no fishing on the Shields today. I have a small ranch south of Big Timber on the Boulder. Got six inchs of snow yesterday and this morning and it is still coming down. Heard Livingston (ie Deadrock) got hit harder and you know that means the Crazys probably got two feet. I enjoy your reports from the front and look forward to the new adds announcement in a couple of weeks. Did you see how the Nextel stock price recovered on Friday after the sell program dump? The last 15 minutes of trading was very interesting as buyers came in, as best they could, in the absense of many sellers. Mark
