Bob, besides Cymer, you're an ETEC fan, too? Can I assume that IBM's foray into mask making is good for ETEC? Jay

Thanks for the post, Bob. I see you recognized me despite the minor name change. I'm still looking for a stock as easy to trade as CYRX, but haven't found it. <G> Actually I stopped by the CYRX/NSM thread the other day and saw most of the same names. I'm holding a tiny position in ETEC that I bought a couple years ago at 28. I agree that the company should remain solidly profitable even in the coming downturn, just as they did in the last one. Nevertheless you may get a chance to add some under 30 one of these days, though it did rally a bit today. Just curious, but have you ever looked at VECO? It is a stock I really like, and I think that they have a good chance of continuing to grow in the downturn, just as they have over the last couple years. I'd be interested in your opinion of them, if you have one. Good luck, Carl
