Hi George, thanks for the note. Sorry to hear that you took a hit with the freeze. We lived in Fresno for a bit over 7 years back in the early 60s. I worked at the State Health Dept. lab out on Shields Ave. They closed down our lab in 1966 and we moved to Panama where I worked for the next 32 years for the Panama Canal. Had to retire last year as US folks can't work there after they reach age 62... part of the treaty agreement. So, here I am at age 62 living in retirement in Cottonwood, AZ. Still trying to get the hang of retirement, but it is coming along OK. Just have to consider getting involved in something to keep me busy... other than keeping up with my investments on the Internet. I see the IMAXF has 7 analysts recommending it with a "Strong Buy" and no other ratings! Not bad, if they are right? I should have waited instead of chasing the stock. I was waiting for some significant news in the New Year, but not forthcoming other than that they plan to build another 80 theaters in the next couple of years. It is a good "defensive" stock and shouldn't take too big of a hit in a general market downturn, I hope... I know there are a lot of other good potential stocks out there, but IMAX is something I really enjoy and I figure there are going to be a lot of folks like me out there. I haven't seen the T-Rex 3D movie yet, but will in the next few weeks when we get down to Arizona Mills in Tempe. I have yet to see Everest, but hear that is is really excellent. We have seen all of the Space Shuttle IMAX films down at the Cape, and although they are not done in 3D, the effect is still spectacular... almost like being there! Good luck with your citrus crop. Hope it wasn't a complete loss for you. Best regards, Mel
