LR#LIST Please Help Me Maintain LONG REASONS LIST... SI SYNERGY! I've got an idea to help us FOCUS the LONG energy on this board. Since I am going to be LONG on GNET for a LONG TIME, and now have 95% of my Portfolio in GNET (Yes, I believe that strongly in the company, especially after listening to the conference call last night)... I really want to get the LONG SYNERGY going on this board. Let's make it a model for other boards. We will be increasing the value of SI and our stock by doing so. I am looking for volunteers to take one item from the "GNET: GO LONG BECAUSE.." list and run with it and maintain that item while I maintain the entire list. Please respond to this message with the LR# (Long Reason Number) you would like to "Own". Please include "LR#" at the beginning of the message. For example, if CarolynF decides to volunteer for "27. Friendly, community atmosphere", She would reply to this message with the following subject line: LR#27. This will facilitate searching for messages pertaining to long reasons. The list update will contain LR#LIST at the beginning of the subject line. Thanks for reading this long message and your help! More to come! LR# (Long Reason Number) 1. LIMITED FLOAT 2. Limited institutional participation 3. Little analyst coverage to date (3 Analysts) 4. Paul Allen investment 5. Substantially Low valuation compared to peer group 6. Increasing daily volume levels 7.
