Mark. Good going on writing to the Motley Fools. And you are totally right. They should retract this. One of the Motley's was on CNBC today (I think it was one of the Motley's. I will check my tape when I get home) touting a stock and he could have talked about it then and CNBC is still flashing ICGN onto their screen when mentioning the down draft in the internet stocks. I had bought ICGN on a recomm. the other day and not because CNBC broadcasted it when it went up a cpl of days ago. We lost a nice profit in that stock now. I can't believe that the Motley's would have picked on that low stock. It did not move anything like those other little high flyers that went up 500%+ in just a very short time. Like 1 and 2 days. Since you already talked to them about it, why don't you ask them to retract it. Just tell them you appreciate it that they are sorry but you would be much more pleased if they would set the story straight. Just tell them that if they took the time out to put bad publicity out, they could take the time out to clarify it. Just a suggestion of course. gg. What do you think about this SI IPO? Got to run and thanks again for writing to the Motley's. I did read that piece the other day and it did not even occur to me to write to them. Sonny
