Latest offering to Pink: Octel (OTL), makes leaded additives for gasoline (TEL) seller of gasoline. This was spun-off last year from GLK. Sounds crappy right. Well, you are right, except OTL makes 80% of the world's supply of TEL (which is declining because of the envirnomental effects). However, OTL is a cash machine and the ULTIMATE value play. Stock is at $13.50, yet it is going to earn over $4.50 in fiscal 1998. EBITDA after capex will be close to $200 million, meaning it trades at a little over two times cash flow. Also investing cash into petroleum business. Conference call on earnings on Feb. 10: 1-800-283-1693 Road show feb.10 through 12th. Net present value of cash flows, assuming a 15% drop in sales of TEL everyear is $25 to $30. Company is buying back stock, paying off debt. This is my best idea to his pinkness ever. I hope my hard work helps pay off my indebtedness to him from making me so much money last year.

Master Pink, You stated that you were mostly bowing out of the i-nut craze in search of better opportunities. Does this include FHT? It seems ready to pull back. Each break out has been progressively smaller. Hank
