Clone I think not. Imitation is the highest form of flattery, is it not? BTW, are you clairvoyant? You seem to know exactly what will happen in the future?

RE: " BII trading on the Nasdaq will be reviewed as a CLONE..." Perhaps you should be more discerning about the news you hear or see. I wonder what Michael Dell would have thought if someone had said to him that he was a clone of IBM, HP, CPQ, etc... or Bill Gates? or Linus who is now turning the world on fire with his new operating system. Just another clone! Geoffrey Ballard was not concerned that there were other fuel systems out there. He worked on his and has been named as one of the heroes of the planet. Just another clone?? When people think small, we all lose. We need big thinkers and doers who have dreams and daring and they need encouragement or constructive criticism not denigration. Godin has a dream in BII and at this point the fundamentals are with him. If the company is unable to continue to develop, we will all get the message and take our money elsewhere. There is plenty of room for this business in the market place and labeling it a CLONE is an attempt to place it in a negative light. It is very easy to criticize, but hard to be constructive. If BII is not doing things well enough, why don't you start up a company and show us how to do it correctly and we'll all invest in your perfect business. I too, am anxious to see the financials for the last quarter and they will come out when they do and all your speculation will not change a line of it. I don't do patience very well either, but that's the way it is. End of sermon...... Mac
