I see, and depending on the market conditions, it's is enough to put the glass away when it's half empty/full. I'm weird. I think of buying nete, as it "bottomed out" at 11. But that is because I bought spde some days ago at 1 1/16 (when someone threw in zillion of shares at $1... but sold way early, though at a gain. C. Meanwhile, ICCAC (ICCSA) is still at 10.25.

Barb - I'm beginning to learn not to "milk the last ticks out of a short sale." I tried to milk SRCM last fall and lost all my profits and then some. OUCH! Also, with my broker (Discover) the margin requirement is the same ($5/share) for shorts up to about $12. So it frees up a lot of margin when I cover low shorts. I am even thinking of covering ZITL and then hope for a run up like the rest of you. Now if CYOE would just get low enough so I could worry about milking the last ticks.... David
