I'll admit that I'm kinda disappointed with the market's reaction this morning. My 'hopes' were higher. And maybe I was expecting too much, too soon. The moderate volume really surprises me, though. With all the buzz, interest in CYCH, I would have anticipated a lot more activity on any sign of a price decline. It makes me think that there may be less 'hot money' and more investors involved than previously observed. My truth: I'm not buying any more at this point, even though it's somewhat cheaper than my last purchase. And I'm not selling any shares, either. My history is buying too soon... and selling too soon. Well, I may have gotten in too early, but I won't make the mistake of selling too soon. Regards, Paul

K.L. I agree. The bottom line is not important in a company's growth phase. "It takes money to make money." To have any hope at all, earnings must be rolled back into growing the business. With a growing company, an investor looks at the "Top Line." CYCH's 4Q revenues of $4.4mm is up 120% from same qtr '97. 98 revenues at $12.6mm, up from 97's of $4.5. This is top line growth. CYCH is trying to establish a dominant position in an exploding market. That takes lots of cash for marketing and sales. Whisper number did not take that (basic) strategy into account. I have been reading messages from fools who think CYCH will do better this year if they reduce these expenses
