John Curtis;

Despite our enthusiasm for this stock John. Looking around me, I see the market getting weaker. It's beginning to frighten me a little too. I don't know your age but I am old enough to have seen several bear markets. Sometimes, they get started like this. The market starts slipping backwards quietly. A little at a time. Then its weeks and weeks of 3-4 days down and 1 -2 days up with a little rally now and again. It can last a long time. After a while it feels like sandpaper and it hurts. No stock is excepted. Good news produces reverse reactions in particular, stocks. It makes no sense. Whether we are seeing the beginnings of a bear market is beyond me but I have seen this before. I guess, it depends on how long it lasts. Frankly, I don't like the way this market looks.
Bill

OT: LOL! Bill, I've noticed that if you insert a "long winded" URL then for some reason it blows the formatting out of the water. Don't ask me why. As fer UNIX....well, what can ya say about such a perfect, scalable operating system, eh? A great, if somewhat cryptic system upon which(besides Assembler programming) I cut my teeth on waaay back during my "Ma Bell" tenure.

And maybe, juuuust maybe, with the future looking more and more portable all the time, it(or one of it's variants) will finally put a stake through the heart of that cloogy, patchwork abortion of an operating system known as MS-DOS.

Ahhh, it's good to have a dream....one other than VLNC that is. ;-)
