Rats...and a request Just after I posted our firewall locked up from some idiot pinging or spoofing us, so they shut down the net. Then I bought CMGI and left both alone until the afternoon..which is how long I was away from my office. I got back to find both in trouble so called the broker and exited WSTL at a quarter loss. CMGI I didn't exit until near close, and probably should have held that one. I only had 1k shares of WSTL, but I figured it was either going to explode or retreat back to trendline, so at worst I was going to be out $500. As long as CMGI was above my entry of 64.5 I wasn't going to sell anyway, although had I been watching the tick the late afternoon bounce would have irritated me. I'd like to make a small request. Since these firewall outages at work are happening more and more often, if someone would volunteer their phone number (pm me) so that I can pass on either what I see happening or what I am doing and get that posted. I won't abuse the number. Ondays like today three of my co-workers got into CMGI and QNTM (I didn't play that one, but I believe I posted it this morning along with FORE) and there wans't anyway for me to pass that on. It would have to be someone who wouldn't mind and who is at the machine intraday. Thanks in advance. lastshadow
