Good question and I believe it was asked at the ASM. Maybe by jdtiii or sunpoop(?). I don`t know if it was part of the webcast. RP`s response was something to the effect that the compnmay did not offer any incentive to buy shares (many companies offer a discount), so the officers were free to buy on the open market in private accounts. Obviously, we would not get information from private accounts unless it was a super huge transaction (5% or more of the issued shares requires SEC notification).

My impression (WAG) was RP and others did not / have not added to their current positions and his comments about buying on the open market was more smoke than fire.

At one time, FF, RP, and Atul (as well as other BOD members) owned large blocks of stock. However, I have not seen anything other than RP exercising 500K options in June, 2003.
