Dear Michael -- you make very good points. The stock is rather volatile though and, since I trade in a tax-deferred account as well as a taxable one, I have been able to catch the swings a couple of times. The stock has a history of backtracking (sometimes substantially) after great eps reported. For all the reasons you mentioned, I believe this is an excellent longer-term investment. Just trying to catch the next short-term swing. Profits aren't logged, after all, until you sell. Happy trading, Ariella
