William H. Ferguson:

I appreciate your feedback and I tend to agree with you regarding putting all your eggs in one basket, but once in a lifetime a sector like Y2K comes along.

I have been in for over a year now and I am up over 50%, and most of the money that will be going into these Y2K stocks has just started, the costs to fix the Y2K problems are in the hundreds of Billions of Dollars, see Cheryl's Postings, No. 11397.

I guess I am gambling, but if these stocks that I am in dropped 50% tomorrow, I would still be even and it would not affect my standard of living, but again thank you for your concern and feedback, it is much appreciated, that you took the time to post your letter to me and others like me.........
