sibe--- if you only do it once, you are very lucky. Seems I get one big loss every year plus a few small ones. The name of the game is to have the total started with each year be lower than the number at the end of the year. As a trader I have some self imposed rules that limit my downside--- and the upside too at times. I am not worried about the bottom or the top--- just allow me a big portion of the middle. I too am down on ALYD so far on this purchase. I am in just under 18 and about ready to bail out. Nothing seems to make it go up as long as Gruder insists on diluting at every turn...

Quite a bit has been mentioned lately about Alydaar getting better PR people to present the company in a more positive light and let the street know of its other abilities other than Y2k work. The problem is I'm not so sure Alydaar is focusing on anything else right now other than Y2k work. About a year and a half ago, Alydaar was talking about future language migration and Euro work. However, I haven't seen anything concrete. And well, I think by now we all know about Gruder's early projections and promises. There was also a discussion between Tech Master and Jeff Mitchell about the advisability of Alydaar doing Y2k work. Just a comment: Peter de Jager and Capers Jones, among other Y2k experts, have said that the Euro implementation must be delayed because of the lack of computer resources to deal with both the Euro and Y2k. They predict even more chaos because of the two gargantuan projects occurring simultaneously. I'm just raising the possibility that the Euro may be a bust.
