I don't really agree with the line of reasoning here. You folks are implying that if Y2K finally becomes a big deal among investors, then money will start to flow into TPI. I say that if a fresh investor starts looking at the whole basket of Y2K stocks, there won't be much to attract them to TPI. There are hundreds of companies in Y2K now, some of them with real revenues and profitable success. Does TPI stand out enough right now to attract investors? I say no, especially if the investor pauses enough to do some good DD. I quess I'm saying that TPI still needs to make itself known. Holding investor relations meetings won't do it. It has to come from the fundamentals. TPI has a long way to go. They still have yet to put themselves on the map as far as I'm concerned. It's evident that they are beginning to get some actual work in the Y2K environment, but the revenues just don't add up to much right now, and the whole Bemer thing is looking a little wacky to me right now. It's mid July. Something isn't right with that one. So I don't think that the stock will just get better because of renewed interest from Clinton or the US Government. The only thing that matters is if TPI can get some big contracts. As far as I'm concerned, if TPI can't come up with at least 20 million in new contracts by the end of '98, then they've missed the boat. The Y2K bandwagon will come and go before you know what's hit you. I think the market is seeing it my way too, as evidenced by the trading pattern we've seen. Lack of confidence in the company and the stock. TPI still has to make its splash. JMO + $.02 dave
