Sam, I am neither long, nor short EGRP. I have never looked very closely at this stock until today. I saw they announced earnings, and read their 'announcement' on Pointcast. It sounded so positive, as they(they as in most companies) always do. I needed to look more closely. One of the ways I do that is to come to SI and read posts, especially ones that contain links to useful data. I just cant see too much positive in a company that has had successive quarters of declining revenue. On a personal note, I once used E.trade as a brokerage and was not happy AT ALL. There is where the vindictive tone may have originated. But short, I am not.. regards, MA
