Rick,

Thanks you for passing on that press release. It surely sounds like they are moving in the right direction. I am familiar with a few of these builders since they do build in the Washington D.C. Metro area. Renaissance builds typically homes in the 3200-7500 sq ft range(mostly around 5500 sq ft after sunroom/library, 500k-1m). These are serious upscale homes. Trafalgar Homes are around 2800-3200 sq ft(350-500k, as I remembered) targeted for middle class, and Stanley Martin builds high quality townhomes and custom single family(3500+ sq ft, 450-1m). Stanley Martin is a very reputable builder. From what I am hearing their first quarter should be close to 180k-250k.

Lowes should certainly give them a boost in delivering their product to other builders. By the way, Jaegar supplied the I-joist to NV homes. NV is receiving the IBS 2000 from LRL directly and using its product with Jaegar's I-Joist. Ryan homes(sub of NV homes) should be signed on with LRL in the coming months. Ryans builds more homes than NV on an annual basis.

Thanks again,
Stock_owner

After closing at a new 52-week low yesterday and opening at yet a new 52-week low today, I think all of us have the right to ask just what the hell is really going on. The company is silent, and jealously guarding any information pertaining to the much-hyped sales/earnings (it's been heavily "indicated" that LRL will show a profit in 1stQ99), while this thread enters into the third stage of rigor mortis.

Granted, it's not easy to put a happy face on this situation, but we should have our suspicions heightened by the fact that it doesn't take much to shut everyone up. On most boards where startup companies are issuing glowing progress reports positively a-drip with allusions of immediate earnings potential, there are investors which are sure enough of their convictions to at least defend their opinions, wether rooted in fact or wishful thinking.

Wherefore have gone the champions of Luxor? Will this damsel have to meet her accursed fate at the hands of the Unbelievers alone and defenseless? Who will step up and save the day? Is it too late?

Breathless with anticipation, as I am sure you all are,

Foxy
