"Al you fret too much as do most accountants." Just a cotton pickin' minute! I'm an accountant, I don't wear suspenders, and I don't fret (maybe a litte). And please don't compare NXTL with Iomega. NXTL is going to be around as a major player in the wireless biz for a LONG time, not a one product company. Many Iomega has legs but not the likes of NXTL. :-)) Arnie

Ken: I don't see the picture as you do, but, I always was color blind. I'm real happy for you guys, be concerned, but celebrate. I agree, I missed the boat, the train, the plane, but I didn't loose or make any money either, so, no skin off my nose, I can be happy for you. I must admit one thing. Prior to the break out to the 28 area I did speak badly of Nextel management, nothing management did impresses me, especially the investment in Japan. However, the inclusion of Nextel in the S&P 500 is impressive, I cannot second guess that. Just for the more humerous side. Suppose they wanted Nextel in the 500 to balance off those big gainers. If not, the 500 was taking off. Now, after Nextel calms down, perhaps the balance will be positive for all concerned. Who predicted the move upward, was it you or Kevin? Just curous. Ed said something but it sounded like sitting on the fence. Arnie always predicts blast off, even when it was dumping to 23. But, either you or Kevin has the charts interpolated and called the move to the day. Who was it? Regards from Al G., starting an investigation to present an award for precise stock predicting.
