Mr. Friedman, I have been in and out of SYNT since shortly after it's debut....always long. In fact, I am presently holding a small stake at a small loss. However in view of the heights the stock has hit and it's great fundamentals, I find it very disappointing that the management isn't doing more (as many other respectable companies do) to keep the integrity of the stock. I think it's crazy that this stock needs a 200% rise to reach it's old highs. What do you think is in order? BTW, I do not post on SI to try to manipulate the members of any boards to enhance my short positions. While I do short, I seriously doubt that SI could swing my positions. Presently I do it VERY short term anyway. If you are interested in reading my past posts, you may find it mildly entertaining to read all the positive ones I posted about SYNT in the past. Mostly due to my Y2K interests. Also, I wish Mr. Stephen well in the market. My comments were only meant to present a different viewpoint. I'm quite sure Stephen makes his own decisions in the end. But I maintain that fundamentals are not affecting SYNT, nor have they been for a few months. Otherwise, the price would not be where it is. Therefore, I'm using caution. I use charts to make guesses at support/resistance areas. It works well for me in helping to choose entry points. I'm not one of the bad guys, just a little pissed off with SYNT, the analysts, and MM's. I have been watching quite a few stocks do very well lately, often with the help of an analyst or two. It would be very easy for SYNT to do the same, IMHO. Cheers, Bond

i. friedman - maybe my previous posts weren't clear. I already have a position that I consider a significant part of my portfolio. My buying of additional shares therefore, means that they would have to be at the lower end of the current trading range - and given a weaker market, that could be 12.5 or below. Whilst I believe in this company and management, the sector is weak ... so the stock price is always liable to influences beyond Synt control .... so if i get more ... fine ... if I don't ... also fine. As for Mr Bond, it looks like you may have stirred him ... whereas usually he's shaken !!(GG) Good luck all Stephen
