Don't you worry that Mays are too close? I worry about itchy daytraders rotating into cyclically sensitive sectors -- and picking out favored targets like HD. And next to Dell, it's practically a deep value play. mb

Mouth breathers?? Michael, you are going to have a couple guys chasing you with DeWalt drills set on high <ggg>. On a different note, comments you have made about HWP being a straight up company struck a chord with me when I read the current issue of Fortune. There was a small column in it that talked about how CEO Lew Platt has had to GIVE BACK options due to company performance. Most unusual and refreshing. I doubt very many other CEO's have this type of clause in their employment contracts... John

ALthough the HD in our neighborhood is most definitely a very high class home improvement emporium, and I know this because I shop there frequently and have never seen a mouth breather, even a surreptitious one, I still bought the May50s. I feel extremely guilty, however, as the lovely Ralph Lauren paint on my walls is from HD as is the swing in our back yard. It seems unAmerican somehow. Tried for the SLRs but they toyed with me. I hate that. Benedict penni, breathing through her nose
