Fred: That margin experience is a big OUCH!! One I council everyone to stay away from until corporate provides sufficient warm & fuzzies. Afterwards, with judicious application, well...leverage can be a powerful "thang" as long as you don't get caught on the wrong side of the power curve. Heh! As for selling in the $20's. Nah, not a chance. I'm gonna ride this puppy Warren Buffet style until such time as conditions warrant a change. However, me thinks I'm getting ahead of myself. First let's see VLNC execute the next step, and NOT one which executes us instead(ahem). And Steve, if you mean by "fishing" that Hammer Slammer fishing computer game then sure, why not talk about "fishing." After all, it'll need batteries, eh? ;-) Bottom Line? Next week sure promises to be interesting. John~

Hi FMK, thanks for sharing your story. I guess I feel kind of sheepish (hah) when comparing experiences since I've only been in this stock for a month. I do share your attitude about taking your best shot, however. If I'm in for a penny, I'm in for a pound. Everything in life is a risk. A guy who I've known for years and is the same age, in apparent good health, dropped dead last month while riding a bicycle He was a nice guy, everybody liked him and as far as I know,he always played it safe. Agreed, we have a fighting chance to become wealthy from this investment. Its a tight race, and as lws once advised, I have every available body part crossed (but I havn't burned any incense,yet). Don't let the manic-depressives bother you, just stay focused--you da MAN!
