Hello Musea. Sorry for being so late. You must have posted when I put my last post on and then went off line. I hope that all your family is well again. Well, Science is actually right. gg. You don't catch a cold from being cold. But you are right. It lowers your resistance and gives a virus the chance to attach to your cells. We should all heed the advise of Dr. L. Pauling and take plenty of Vitamin C in the winter time. And we should avoid direct contact with people with colds and flus. gg. Hard to do with my grandchildren. I don't think they ever come over in the winter time without a cold and running noses. About splits making a stock better. I guess I should have said it does not make a company better since I did say that a split announcement generally drives the price of a stock up. Again: It gives the small investor a better chance to buy in round lots cheaper and a lot of people jump on the bandwagon when a split is announced. That includes me when it comes to a good company knowing that there will be more buying again. But investors should buy into a good company even when the stock price looks high. Nothing wrong with buying 25, 50 or 75 shares when that's all the cash one has to invest. Intc and AOL are not doing us proud today. But who wants to complain? Sonny
