Have you tried a passbook savings account? You can watch it grow every month.

Gunther, You only LOSE money on stocks when you sell for less that you bought. Granted I bought much of mine at pre reverse split prices but just the same WHY would you sell it NOW. At least give it till the fall and CALL FTEL and talk to some people there about your investment. Otherwise just sell it and CRY later... Bob

Gunther, There's a sociological effect called the '100th monkey phenomina' which states that there is a certain number of monkeys, say 100, that send a message. If 99 monkeys in New Jersey can be taught to wash their food in a given way then they learn and that's that. If one additional NJ monkey is taught to do this, then monkeys in New Mexico, without prompting of any kind, will start washing their food that way. Well, I admit that I sold a few times during the rise back in Sept-Oct (starting at $3 1/4), but I sure kicked myself. What you've got to realize is that there are more than 100 thoroughly tightfisted and convinced investors on this thread and there's just no explaining how they communicated to you to hold onto Franklin (or maybe the folks at HQ). I don't think it had anything to do with what they actually wrote. That's communication too. It's the business we're in. People act like there's some kind of 'Susanna Conspiracy'. There isn't, but there's no real way to get to the bottom of it. WH
