TO ALL: Guys, I know this is a VERY STUPID question but.....does anyone know how I might have a chance in hell of getting any IPO shares??? I know, I know you are all rolling on the floor but I thought I would ask anyway.

Thanks in advance.
Good Luck to those with shares!!!

I was one of those psychos who reloaded every 2 minutes waiting for ETrade to open indications of interest. They opened it up at 6:30 PST sharp, even though they put '5pm' on their IPO center message. Closed it 1 1/2 hours later. I figured if someone told me I could make a few grand if I would reload a web page for a few hours, I would probably do it. Wouldn't guess anyone at ETrade will get more than 100 shares, but that should be a nice little piece of change on this one. ETrade probably gave a misleading time to give the appearance that they gave all a decent window of opportunity.

Good luck to all who got a piece of the action.
