Jim: I usually think of statements by analysts and brokerage houses as reverse indicators. When someone says "buy this" or our target is "100 percent" growth in the next six months, I have come to assume that they are sitting on a pile of stock they'd like to get rid of. When someone says sell ... Would they say that if they were holding a bunch of stock? Or would they say that if they wanted to either short or buy a bunch of stock? So, whether it's the folks at Taurus or others, I always wonder what motivates both positive and negative recommendations. Cush

Taurus has always been negative on BII, especially that dork Adamou. He himself claimed to have done no research on the company when he declared it a short candidate. There is no question that there will be more and more negative press on net stocks as they decline further, but Taurus's evaluation is one that cannot be taken seriously. I'm not saying that BII is not overvalued -- I'm saying Adamou has no basis for his conclusions. Dow: +46 Nas: +21 TSE: -7 BII: 23k 5.90 x 5.95 5k 92k at 6.00
