Pat, << dump now buy later >> Good point. One I like because it means a temporary dip. If it can't be held down long term, I'm one happy camper. Hey, trip 4's TED! Larry

Dear Pat: Well, huge volume with NO BAD NEWS to me is a good sign whether stock goes up and down. Why, because it indicates there are buyers out there. SOMEONE has to be buying all that stock. I should point out on or about 4/24/98 TAVA set its all time intraday high of just under 15. Makes sense to me it could happen again. 3rd qtr earnings will be out likely no later than 4/15 (45 days after qtr end). I think they may beat the estimate of I think 13 cents handily. Why?, because they still have a 9 million NOL carryover. I know there is complicated calculations as to how that is utilized but I just have a feeling (not sure though) that there will be a way they can continue to set up a "Deferred Tax Benefit" if that is so much of the earnings if not all will AGAIN be tax sheltered. In any event I seriously doubt they will be FULLY TAXED as the analyst current estimate assumes. If that is the case, they could earn as much as 27 cents a share again or maybe as little as say 16 cents. Either way, it will be a strong indication that the original estimate of 77 cents for the year will be substantially beaten. Also by 4/24 the should have wrapped up in a stronger package the Airport and I2 deal not to mention whatever else comes along such as expanding the USPS contract. I guess what I am saying there is the POTENTIAL for some very good news to become available in conjunction with the 3rd qtr. If TAVA management handles it well I can sure see another run here. JDN
