Ariella, I agree that we are forever entertwined with MOT, at least for the next year or two or three. By the way, I am also 'heavy' in ABTX, however, have in that one I have a basis of just over $4.00 so I like it lots more. Good to have friends - are you in RECY, another ABTX consolidator type company in recycling. I have a good basis there too, as it has been a 4 bagger in the past year. I saw the Dodge man picked up a bunch more TFS today. Unfortunately, I started picking some up on Wed. Thurs. plus today, and now my piggy bank is closely being guarded by my mother/wife. Unlike Noblesse, I wish I would have sold a lot at $19, so I could have bought back more today. Rather have a tax problem than a loss. By the way THREAD, I noticed that several news wires ran the TFS story this way " TFS announced today that 2nd quarter revenue will be down 15-25% from last year." That stupid mistake cost us. I have been e-mailing all afternoon Hawaii time. There is a big difference between growth of 15-25% year to year versus down 15-25% year to year. This is not the first time this has happened with TFS. Have a good week-end and maybe we will hear something positive next week. regards, Ed P.S. Just said that to get Franklin's goat.

Ariella, The specialist will not take your shares "down to the floor", if you want to sell them, sell them. One must understand that to "sell" stock their must be a buyer willing to acomodate you. If you choose to attempt to sell size late in a trading day when the market is selling off, you will not succeed. Trading is an art that few understand. The bottom line is to you have to be a seller when their is a buyer, not when you choose to sell them. With respect to ABTX and PARS, I hope your investments hypothesis is successful. Is TFS a five bagger? Lets start with a double, and see if the revenue opportunities that exist come to fruition. Based on the comments from the company, the risk to significant price erosion appears minimal from these levels, I consider that to ne more important at this point in the market. Regards,
