I always buy spec stocks for the future prospects not the past results especially where the past results may/will no longer continue. It will be interesting to compare the 3rd qtr results, post Bestbank bust, to those from the second qtr, pre Bestbank collapse. 3rd qtr 98 over 3rd qtr 97 IMO does not mean as much. 4th qtr 98 and 1st qtr 99 will be very sad if Bestbank processing is pulled from CLCK, and if they want to punish the principals that is what they will do. Who is the fool. I have not bought the stock and I am one of several providing the caution to the rose colored glasses of you and Jeffrey.

BRAVO for you Jeff... that was very, very well stated!! Columbia Capital already announced its third quarter earnings of $.06. Moreover, I have spoken to everyone who knows anything about what is going and that's why I really believe the situation will work out with the FDIC. When this becomes a matter of record, I think everyone will start buying this stock forcing the price right back up. If you take into account the impact of the Millenium and Platinum contracts, and I understand from the company that a sponsoring bank for these contracts will be announced soon, I think earnings will soar. My decision to invest in Columbia Capital was based on the strong fundamentals of the company. This entire ordeal has been painful with all investors like myself feeling it. But, with the growth in real earnings increasing quarter by quarter, I'm in it for the long haul.
