Apache and Hold the Mayo, thought you both would enjoy a little taste of what H&Q had to say, in part, about VERT yesterday. I'm coming in to play tomorrow. Good luck to you both. Jeff << VerticalNet Out of Quiet Per.,Leads B2B Web Play, Init. w/BUY We are initiating coverage of VerticalNet, the leading operator of targeted portals for business-to-business (B2B) trade communities on the Internet. In our opinion, VerticalNet represents an exciting business-to-business (B2B) Internet services story--one that combines a huge untapped market opportunity in terms of linking buyers and sellers across a "portfolio" of vertical industries with a visible, recurring revenue services model. Accordingly, we initiate coverage with a BUY rating and believe that VERT should be a core holding for aggressive Internet investors.>>

Mayo, my words seem lost on you... what I meant is nobody can guage the true potential of these companies and translate them into concrete numbers, so the numbers posted are arbit and hence meaningless, thats what tulipmania is all about, guaging the unguagable and thats what is driving these Internet stocks I learnt my lesson not to give these stocks any valuations based on concrete numbers; simply trade/st invest in them and make money, who knows when and if another such opportunity will come in our lifetimes, good luck with your investments
