Hi Dawg, looks like your just pickin and grinin here lately. I hope you don't start chargin too much when you get famous. Thought I would throw this out. I've been playin BCST for about two weeks, makin a little here and there. Then, yesterday I got some around 87.5. Now, this looked good. Well, it promply drops to 86.3, and I'm out for a loss. Today, it closes at 91 11/16. The market has me wound tighter than a banjo string. It's got to be a love/hate thing. :} (we won't talk about any shorts...) Damn market. Needs firm direction, and less wishy washy stuff.
Jim.
