<g> 'Waiting for the settle'...you should have seen me when I had make about a 10K buy of Cendant (CD) for my boss - right after trading had been halted because of the selloff from the CompUCard mess....talk about chasing!! I'll NEVER forget it...I've got the broker on one phone and da BossLady on the other....and I'm trying to talk her out of doing the buy until it settles...and she changes her mind, then changes it back again...and the ask and the bid is just ALL over the place while this comedy is going on...and the broker's ready to send a hit man after me to put me out of his misery....LOLOL what a zoo!

<s> I thought she was nuts to chase it, but she proved me wrong on that one. Me, with my OWN money, now...you'll never catch me chasing another one. If I miss it, I miss it. As I've learned the hard way, it's not worth the risk for me.

GaBard, I too hope you get it sifted and screened. As you know I am a long term investor and not a trader. I have patience and have really learned a valuable lesson (from you) that is simply to support the company and the stock.

If a company has strong fundamentals, good management and has had past successes then there is a real good chance it will continue to prosper. But, when shareholders keep toying with it like a Yo Yo it never gets a chance to build a solid bottom from which to raise. JMO!
