I knew I shouldn't have sold out at 32. Darn! Those dastardly shorts finally did it to me. They scared me out. (Just kidding, of course). I think I'll probably drop dead with this stock.

Hi Bill, I agree, this was one of his better performances. What to you make of the stock action over the last 30 hours or so. Looks like a lot of profit taking, some, but obviously no way near all short covering, and continued short selling? We're still shy of where we were before earnings, and before Roche pulled out. I'm going to sell some calls against some positions, but am thinking I should wait for the news to settle, and see what kind of write ups come out over the weekend. PAL...I know that IR depts of one or two other threads keep a keen eye...probably depends on the company.

Bill: If you upgrade this stock to a "strong buy" (in your opinion), maybe that would give the needed stimulus to get this stock price >40. PAL: I think that Peter et al reads SI in his/their spare time; I'm sure he says "thank you" for your comments today. FWIW, I would be surprised if IR wasn't watching the different message boards, particularly the astute comments made on SI by all you gurus (I'm just a flunky and don't count). Henry et al: Can you cut/paste (post) the AGPH info from the San Diego Tribune today? Sam: You still have time to buy in at a good price. Don't die on us; even tho' you're an attorney, I promise to resuscitate you (I'm very good at CPR). Everyone hang in there today; good days are coming. eom. "Izzy"
