I quite simply do not have the time to follow the day to day movement of this stock. I count on you good folks to keep posting pertinent information so my occassional``drop ins`` yeild the greatest possible amount of info in the shortest amount of time. Great posts, Bill, on the theory of accumulation. Not sure I understand all the possibilities but your logic sounds as good as any concerning recent volume/price relationship. Thanks, also, to Don and Frank for their always enlightening reports from their annual road trip from hell. I hope over the next couple of months to reduce my work load and establish better internet access - I really do miss the interaction with my edig friends (can`t believe I actually said that - gotta get a life) :>)). Keep posting the good stuff guys - I really do appreciate it.
