Poor Katie will have to watch out as she becomes potential target of the "Diogenes Lie Detector and Voice Stress Analysis Criminal Justice System." diogenesgroup.com

TimKP; <<One thing my friend said was that Katie, in general, didn't sound real upbeat on RDRT. Nothing real specific just that her overall tone seemed pretty nervous and cautious. When asked if she thought RDRT would get things turned around, she kind of went silent. Just didn't seem to portray much confidence (FWIW)>> Now I am waiting for "Stud" to post that what you report is a sure sign to buy because no doubt Katie lost her cheerleader pom poms because the boardroom boys need time to load up at market prices.<G> But, FWIW I don't try to read too much into tone of voice and spoken nuances on the part of IR folks. In addition IR folks must be very measured in the things they say. I still think that RDRT is very close to at least one qual that I know of and that little else matters right now. Its a sine qua non. Best, Stitch

I find your last paragraph rather interesting since you just said that she confirmed that the revenue growth this quarter would probably be in the lower end of the 10 - 20 % range RDRT had previously spoken of. Simply put you are contradicting yourself. When I spoke with here last week she seemed quite upbeat. I guess she is talked out at this point from all the calls. From the fact that I found her very upbeat in tone I will assume your first paragraph is a statement that pertains to facts and not based on opinion or impressions. Based upon your previous remarks out here I am inclined to think you are short.
