Merril Lynch

Of specific significance was the Merill Lynch analyst (Glen Berkley) Congratulating RECY on a good job done... And when referring to the depressed stock price, he said "We'll get the stock price on the right track"... Interpret it any way you want to...

Tom Wiens said they expect additional analyst coverage soon...

I didn't get a chance to ask the question about Buy vs Lease on new Eqpmt or Revenues per Employee... I left a message with these questions...

Overall, it was a positive Conference Call... But, I didn't come away as enthusiastic as I did after the First Qtr Conference Call... Regardless, RECY remains a long term holding in my portfolio... Anyone else listening to the call is welcome to add their interpretations...
