Off-Topic, howdy Ed,Decided to look at SKI, currently 6.50. We've talked about this one in the past,we were both bearish and the stock is down from 18.00. But now, with the price at this level,probably helped by a couple of downgrades, I think it might be looking attractive. The company is debt laden for sure-earnings suck,etc.,etc.,. They have been spending a sh*tload here in the valley,new lifts,Grand Summit Hotel,Haystack Mountain,some other big building, I'm not even sure what it is. Could be the new movie theatre,or general store they are planning to add(I'm betting a gas station is next). This expansion is being undertaken in other areas as well-especially out West. Obviously their best time of the year is around the corner,could be a big winter-La Nina,we've had 5 days of frost in a row now (heating oil?) Between the real estate ventures and the "newer,better" ski areas..who knows? Opinion? Anybody TIA..DD PS: What I need is a CPA,Harvard MBA,Physicist,or possibly an Oilman<g> to look at the debt structure,it's far to complicated for this dictchdigger--lots of debentures,instituions own almost 90% according to one of the sites(probably notes<g>) Ed? Razor? Zeev? Anyone?
