Bold statements, yes, accuracy, not bad. Hit earnings on the head and ezsurf a month before it was out. Predicted browser deal with netscape, and was saying for a full month and a half before ANY announcements were made that "IDT is working on some ecommerce stuff that will knock your socks off". Predicted the company would spin off net2phone long before they announce their intention and broke the story on the mystery switch. This is to name just a few, of my prescient comments obtained through research and analysis, discussions with analysts etc. However, I will admit to one thing. I have done a terrible job of short term price predictions for the company. Frankly, I stink in that area. Probably because I invest wayyy long and just like the excitement of talking to the daytraders. I have learned NO ONE can predict the day to day movement of any stocks price but A LOT of people do it better than I. Best regards.

>>Hawaii, please spare this board of any predictions.<< Shirlitz, I, for one, appreciate Hawaii's predictions. Please refrain from speaking for the board and telling others what to post.

Shtirlitz, <<Hawaii, please spare this board of any predictions. >> For the life of me I cannot figure out what axe you are grinding with this rebuke but I found it about as inappropriate as anything I have seen on SI. The whole idea, it seems to me, for us to be here is to share info and ideas. I welcome anyone's predictions especially when they are accompanied by rationale. I also feel that I want the opportunity to attempt to exercise some intelligence in sorting the wheat from the chaff. What I specifically do not want is someone else deciding or influencing what I should see or not see. Hawaii, please do not "spare" us any of your ideas or predictions. I for one, primarily a lurker here, welcome them. Best, Stitch
