Hi Doug. Been following this thread closely. Been on ebay since 02/97. Missed *etrade by a bit but got in low and held. I wanted to make this a long term hold in the worst way, but it's too out of control for me. I was a hog once in 96' and got sent to the slaughter house. Never again. Also the fact that insiders hold so much make me even more nervous. Also they gave themselves a 3 for 1 before going public from what I hear? Not sure if that is true. Can you even make a guess what will happen when, I estimate, they announce 10-20 million? The $ from adds they've started aught to push that over easily, + $anta Clau$ $ea$on. The shorts drove it up covering themselves. Investing now has little to do with it. They've gotta split or float more shares, or risk strangling the ones holding on. Now I haven't got the slightest idea. It would be too good to be true if it bounced! Rick
