FLASH! Farewell to Cadmium. Shareholder bob Thrasher just called to say he had purchased AA and AAA NiMH batteries from "Radio Shack". The batteries were made for Radio Shack (Tandy) in France which leads me to believe they are from Saft. Not sure of that. Can't wait to throw away my cadmium rechargables. This is the first time I have heard of 'off the shelf'. NiMH batteries (excepting PACKS for Cellular etc.) in the US. More info later. Don Devlin

This is a suspicious number, primarily because it is too good to be true in a period when the entire planet is bailing as far as tech stocks are concerned. I've tried to double check the number, but so far have not been able to nail down ECD's transfer agency.

Tom, I'm not sure that institutional holdings are such a great thing for us. Todays professional money managers behave like neurotics in a stalled elevator. The informed shareholders have been like bricks. In a small cap company like ENER it doesn't take much panic selling to drop the stock like a stone. Todays money managers rarely move on their strongly held beliefs. They tend to go with the momentum so as not to be too far away from the herd. As Peter Lynch once said, one bad month or quarter and their kids may not be going to that IVY League school.
