>>>The CYCH CEO, Melton was on a Louis Rukeyser special Friday night on PBS. Basically saying that e-commerce will triple every year for a number of years going forward. Well that's true...but it will go faster then that 300%...that's just taking last year and going forward conservative on sales. Look at the graph on the last article on e-bill volume....e-bills are going to go from a Million dollar market to a Billion Dollar market in less then 5 years....if you believe all those numbers and graphs...I'm an idiot I do. That Graph by the way...disagrees with those numbers I found in that Telco Article yesterday...but one thing is for sure. They are seeing this go from several million of bills to billions in a compressed time frame...couple years. I can wait 2 more. bai.org

>>>It appears that banks and their oldline way of doing business may become less and less relevant>>> Bankers function best when they remember the 3-6-3 rule under which they operate most effectively. The rule teaches them to borrow at 3%-lend at 6%-and be on the golf course by 3pm. In recent years, it has become 3-6-3 plus fees. They will not be at the forefront of change and history teaches us and them that they ought not to be! They do best when they stay conservative and chant to themselves, "3-6-3 plus fees". It is no surprise when they drag their feet and I expect CKFR has learned this lesson well!
