Safeskin is not Nike, not in any way, shape, or form. It may recover, but it probably
will not. It definitely is not comparable to Nike in any assessment of the facts. Look
at other "good" Companies about the same size and franchise as Safeskin. only one or
two out of ten ever recover to their former glory. Most just sizzle and pop in the frying
pan, and then poof their gone...takenover...sold out...split up...whatever.

I'm not criticizing you, far from it. If you are comfortable with holding this for one to
two years with a wait and see attitude, then I hope you are successful. I just hope that
you realize that in that time you may find your stock worth far less than it is today.

Take care

Brian Connolly

For what it's worth, my stock club met last night, decided not to join the suit, and decided to continue to hold their shares. There was some talk that we should buy ore of it once we see the stock price stabilize and go up a point or two. My club thought that would likely occur in about 3 months. I can't say that they know anything more about SFSK than anyone here. In fact, I'm sure they know less. their views were based on prior experiences with similar situations.
