re: Re: "What is the appropriate time frame to fully depreciate a semi-submbersible oil rig? How about hubs and routers for networks?"

and re: other tough questions posed----

If it were necessary to answer such questions before determining whether to invest, then there'd be darn few people investing. Of course, one could say there SHOULD be a lot fewer people buying these stocks. On the other hand, I prefer to take the position that perhaps the answers (therefore the questions) might not be significant to individual investors who are making buying decisions. Now whether or not it's important to determine the answers for a sell (or hold) decision)... I do not have an opinion (yet -g-). Paul
