Chaz and Mr. Harvey, While I understand the frustration at not seeing the stock price of such an excellent company stand still while other worthless entities quadrouple their securities worth overnight by adding .com to their corporate title, I personally feel management is handling the situation properly. I don't know how many have noticed that RADAF toys ARE on-line both at RADAF's new web-site (not for sale but they will direct you where to find them), and on many on-line shopping pages. Most notebly in the last month they were in the E-bay toy store whose banner was run prevalantly across most every web page I went to this Christmas season. Mr. Harvey makes the correct assessment when he states "Walmart and Target might not cotton to Radica setting up a competitive venue". RADAF has worked hard establishing an excellent world wide system of both brick &mortar, and internet retailers, they are in absolutely no position to alienate these entities and try to go it on their own. Even industry giants MAT & HAS, you will notice haven't been silly enough to try this, and they are suffering stock wise as well. Let the retailers retail, both on-line and off! Besides. I believe RADAF has found its on line niche, and will exploit it greatly with Girltech because Girltech will not simply be a place to sell toys but a cultural and interpersonal meeting place for an undersold demographic (young girls). In the mean time watch as many of the new .com companies see their mangement sellout at these undeserved spikes and then fall to even lower or Q status. Mark my words. Best Wishes, Swedelo
