Mark that's exactly what I was thinking. It would be a three or four bagger for Skip, so who can blame him, but it seemed to me he couldn't wait to be able to margin against his holdings.

Any words of wisdom from Cheryl. It's always interesting to hear what others are doing or saying. So I'll share my thoughts. I can't believe how easy it is to shake out the weak hands. Nobody questioned when the stock went from 7 to 14 in two weeks on no news, but now so many are jumping ship after finally getting the news we have all been waiting for. Like so many others have said the fundamentals haven't changed one iota, but it's the cattle mentality.

I've already lost enough money to know when to hold them and when to fold them. #1 rule in investing buy low and sell high, well when it was high a lot of people sold, now when the cattle are herding is the time to buy. Personally I hope it stays low until May 26th, so I can buy a boatload of 10 calls for a song. This is a great opportunity for traders, but I don't have time to watch to sell on the high and make sure I'm back in on the low. Plus I just don't want to bother with the short term capital gains taxes. Just my HO... back to lurking.

Mark,

Skip hasn't posted on TAVA in ages. I imagine he's been gone for ages. Recent sells ain't got nothing to do with him. My guesses---

1. momentum riders leaving the scene
2. Tim Flick's explanation for the sharp (sharper) drop yesterday regarding flying blind without Galaxy 4
3. earnings report was not spectacular
4. Jenkins didn't go to a good PR school and doesn't know how to hype (or can't) TAVA and cannot disclose the companies that have contracted with TAVA
5. Y2K sector is tanking and TAVA is just on that ship
6. long-term investors locking in profits and waiting for the bottom to get back in
7. CC was not well done and analysts were too unaware or still unconcerned about embedded chips
