Define "centrifugal jig".

ALTIF investors arrange themselves in circle, facing inward and holding hands. Music starts, they begin dancing jig while circle begins to rotate slowly. As music tempo increases, circle moves faster and faster, Altifians jigging ever more frantically. Eventually centrifugal force causes circle to burst apart; resulting lack of gravity causes ALTIF stock price to collapse to zero.

<ERTH>

Bill,

One of your dogs. It's been running. There's supposed to be a conference call tonight with an "announcement." I closed my very large long position today.

Any opinions? Any ideas on what the announcement is?

Remind me not to listen to you any more. <G> I checked my account yesterday to see if ALTIF had hit my stop at 4, and discovered that it was a Day order, not a GTC as I had thought. Due to your comments, I hesitated to re-enter the order, but did so at the end of the day, and the bid went to 4 1/16 and never dropped. Prior to that time I saw a boatload of shares go by at 4 at the bid, and wish I had my order in to see if someone would have sold me their shares at that price.

ALTIF just hit a new high for the day, 4 9/16. Yeah, it may go to zero, but it may be in the next millenia. Edit - now 4 5/8! Up 1/2, or 12 percent!
