Re: "If you wish to litter a thread with garbage go over to Yahoo." I am not positive but isn't Yahoo a free thread? and this being a paid one wouldn't that make your statement more appropriate to a non paying member or hence on a free site like Yahoo's? TTOSBT

LGHTEN UP JOHN, David asked a very good question. How does he get an IPO when it comes out. Your silly post made me think how callous my answer to David was. I want to apologize to you David. In answer tour question,it is very difficult unless you have a strong relationship with your broker. Usually a big firm like Morgan Stanley or a Paine Webber can do it if you are a favored customer. Those trading with on line brokers usually have no chance. I hope now that I have answered your question. John...I hope my answer suited your criteria of civil...clean and was informative to David.
