David, You just won your bet with me on DELL doubling before IDTI did. As I recall, $169.XX was the bet, and DELL subsequently split. Your Big Mac and Pepsi will be on me whenever I can get north or in Norfolk for my annual UDT/SEAL Reunion in July. Congratulations, and I hope you understand that's only the third time in my life I've ever been wrong. Over that burger, you'll have to explain your winning theories on investing. The tip you gave me on AIG, in which I found your address for this response, was a good one. AIG has risen nicely to around an even $100. In my wisdom, I ignored that one, too. Unfortunately, due to an ill-advised bet with each of of my two sons, I owe them $155M apiece. You stand a far better chance of collecting than they. This brief history of my investing and wagering acumen testifies to the fact that no matter how old you get you can still remain dumb by working hard at it. My hat is off to you and your financial perspicuity. I hope your baby girl is smiling at her father now, and she has every reason to do so. Best of luck up there where our president is staggering through to his legacy, whatever it may prove to be. Keep in touch, and we'll try to arrange something this summer. Cheers, Sam
