qwerty, thanks for the clarification, but I need a little more, if you don't mind. I'm confused on the need for a split. If the price hits $40.00/share (the low range of your target) the market capitalization would be $574,000,000!! (14,364,000 o/s shares X 40.00/share)That capitalization,coupled with the monies flowing in from all of the other sources should put a dent in the sand shouldn't it?----------THANX,-------BILL
