Oh, Did I Bring The "Falling Knife" Virus...? As I understand, as a point of clarification, you catch a falling knife with your torso if you're unlucky. Okay, well, first brutal honesty: I bought SEEK to round off my holdings today at slightly above 29. So, there you have it. Maybe, from the SHORT- winded perspective (as opposed to we LONG-winded sorts), I have brought pain to myself. Oh, the District was chilly today. No giggling. No frolicking. Sounds of people exiting. Somebody got trampled, I'm afraid. And, now, SEEK announces its earnings. In a matter of, I guess, moments. Drum roll... please. SEEK, which, according to an MSNBC "article", is the ONLY internet company of any size that hasn't had ANY insider sales this year. None. Can you be really dumb and an insider, too? Well, of course, you can. Nobody seems to know if SEEK's insiders might have had their hands tied because of some sort of restriction or another in conjunction with their fairly recent SPO. I asked on my "home" SI thread--or what used to be until recent ravaging--to a resounding silence. Now, a final thought for now. I e-mailed SEEK a month and a half ago URGING them to BUY SI. I wonder if the Dwyers would have considered the two compatible. Alas, we shall never know. Oh, what might have been... Best Regards, c m

Tom, For a concise summary of our company, read the Aberdeen Group Profile titled, "DynamicWeb Enterprises: The Outsourcing EC Alternative for the Middle Market." I will fax you a copy of the Profile now -- it's six pages -- and send a copy along with our press kit via snail mail. The press kit contains company info, product sheets, a list of clients, bios of the exec. management, etc. Send me e-mail with your address and fax. In short, DynamicWeb Enterprises is an Internet/EDI software and service provider. Our core business is providing EDI outsourcing and Internet-EDI extension solutions. Our EDI services bureau has conducted complete outsourcing services to an impressive client list for more than 15 years. The company's primary clients are businesses using EDI systems but not achieving 100% compliance with trading partners. We seamlessly augment these EDI sytems with Internet technologies (i.e. we don't make any changes to the client's host EDI system) to either increase efficiencies or expand the systems outreach to smaller trading partners. These solutions allow companies to maximize EDI compliance among trading partners on both the buy and sell side of the demand chain by enabling non-EDI companies to send and receive business documents via a secure Web site, point-to-point over the Internet or through existing value-added network pipelines. In addition, DynamicWeb also has a consulting and professional services group that focuses on electronic commerce and Year 2000 solutions. Some of the services provided include the development of EC strategies to the managing of day-to-day implementation tasks such as the mapping and trading partner ramping. Please call me at 973-244-1000 or e-mail wtaylor@dynamicweb.com if you have any questions or want to receive the additional information I mentioned above. Sincerely, William Taylor Manager of Public Relations

Tom, Since you have shown an interest and like to "turn over every rock," I thought you might be interested in the following news release. Sincerely, BJ Taylor P.S. -- I'm a novice (and poor) investor and I also subscribe to your method of turning over every rock when looking at a company's stock. It's the only way when you're not a pro or have one working for you. ************************************************* DYNAMICWEB ENTERPRISES COMPLESTES ACQUISITION OF DESIGN CRAFTING INC.
