<< suggest that you never be afraid to take some profits>>

Although I think Lucent will trade higher and I am still long from 89, I sold half my position yesterday. The reason, my motto for '99 is TAKE PROFITS, so that's what I did. I actually put in a trailing stop about five days ago so when I got filled at 117.50, it was about $9 higher then my orginal sell/stop order. Plus, after Feb 17 I will be back to my original share amount! <ggg>

TQ
