and to ALL: Tidy little advisories: r hiring David Remnick as New Yorker editor, despite goofiness in dealings with Michael Kinsley for job: You're hired! You're fired! And I'm still a billionaire. DOGBX: Index rises five consecutive days because all's right with the world of wannabe world-dominators. Microsoft posts 28 percent increase in fourth- quarter earnings. Boris Yeltsin caves in and attends proper reburial for Russian Czar Nicholas II and his family. RATBX: Apple soars but Netscape's market share sours--the week is a wash. Hard to get to excited about feisty little guys when Wall Street Journal attributes bizarre stock market to The Microsoft Index. TPHBX: One of Wall Street's landmark weeks, yet index is in doldrums, depressed by exposure of Pointy-Haired Attorney General Janet 'The Muck Stops Here' Reno as laughingstock.

It's a lighter look at things and the following 'disclaimer is appropriate: DISCLAIMER : While we personally feel that anyone who takes stock advice from comic strip characters should suffer the consequences, we are legally bound to tell you that the information set forth above is provided purely for entertainment purposes. Dilbert, Dogbert,Ratbert and the Boss don't give investment advice (and neither do Scott Adams or United Media). The groupings of companies and the comments set forth above are based on nothing more than public perceptions about corporate philosophies. They are not recommending the purchase, sale or holding of any security. For those who take a more mathematical view: * The companies in The Dilbert Index were carefully selected based on this formula: Company = (P*10)+X+Y, where P is my personal opinion and X and Y are both letters that don't mean anything. P is subject to sudden and unexplained change, based on the e-mail reports I get from Dilbert readers in the field. Weight is given to companies that have high numbers of cubicles, engineers, and Dilbert-like activities.

On reading this back, maybe I should spend more time attempting to sleep. As usual, the best to all the Group, R.W.
