Hi Robert. My strategy is locked and implemented. There is no turning back for me now. Sometime between 1999 and 2002 I hope to harvest. Until TI stock gets back to approximately the 70 level (do not know when) I plan on continuing with my dollar cost average approach. I want to a lot of TI amassed for the next upturn and then practice market timing at near peak by selling 3/4 of holdings and diversify. I hold two other stocks that are in the tank. This was my token attempt at diversification--who knows, one or both of these may come roaring back someday, but overall impact compared to TXN holdings will pale. The reasons I've not been posting much lately are: 1) Too busy reading everybody else's posts with little to add. 2) Since I'm a tech sales professional I have a long reading list that keeps me very busy--yes working hard to survive the down turn to answer you question. 3) Per above strategy update, my current strategy permits zero room for movement. Stay in touch. I'm here. You've got my home e-mail--send me your work number some day and I'll call you. JB
