AlienTech, Instead of asking Joanne a lot of frivolous questions on her background why don't you just read the Yahoo Board - Neta and that should satisfy your frivolous questions and groundless assumptions. If you read Yahoo Board, there are some very angry and disgrunted former employee of NETA. Some are angry to the point that they are forecasting the stock to go back to the 50's. What we should be looking at is if Larson is making the right moves such as wholesale lopping of two former NETG divisions located at New Hampshire and Hendron, Va. I understand that approximately 250 employees were cut last Monday. What is interesting is one former NETG employee at Hendron recalls how employees would have 12 interviews before they are hired. I had only two rounds of interviews myself in my life time. The point is NETG took great care to select their employees and nurture them over the years. Obviously, NETA does not follow that route and takes the raze and burn route. The reasoning for that is that shareholders love it. However, that is not so good long term for NETA. We hope that Larson is not removing research units that may be needed in the future. The market looked very soft today and Tech rally had a major derail over the last few days. Analyst Kurlack forcased that Intel will see the low 60's which is not good for the tech market. Larson may beat the earnings by a penny. However, the all important conference call, Larson may have a surprise or two for us. First, is more chargeoff in the second quarter. Second, a possible 3 for 2 split, but we must be dreaming.
