Doug - Re: " I would like to know what Barrett thinks is a better use
of his money than in a company that he directly controls. If he has identified a better investment for his funds, I would like to know about it - maybe I should invest in the same thing. "

You had better ask Barrett that question.

While you are at it, you should ask every insider at every company their reasons for selling their company's stock.

By the way - Barrett works to make money - the same reason as you invest.

Do you think selling the stock to make some money would be an adequate explanation ?

Doug,
One comment on the tax implications of exercising Incentive Stock Options (ISO's), which are qualified options. If one buys (exercises) and holds ISO options, they must pay Alternate Minimum Tax (AMT) on the difference between the grant price and the fair market value of the equity on the day of purchase. AMT accrues during the tax year the shares are purchased. The tax rate is in the high 20's.

Greg.
