Well I tried to pick up some shares this morning when PTVL was trading at 16 1/2. When it started to move, I placed a buy @ 16 5/8 -- within seconds the bid was at 16 3/4. I tried again at 16 7/8 -- within seconds th bid was 17. I ended up buying at 17 1/8. Usually it is a mistake to chase a stock when it moves up so fast, but against my better judgement I bought it anyway. An hour by hour chart of PTVL looked like it had bottomed in the mid 15s. I watched the stock re-trace to 16 7/8 (the bid went to 16 5/8 !!) but I held on. I live in DC and PTVL has begun to advertise on the radio. "Join our 6,000,000 members, etc ". Also they are offering a $100 discount if you use them in the next few weeks. Regards, Chris
