I have been following this company for the past 20 years. It looks to me like all of their hard work Is about to pay off over the next few years. Buy some now to get your feet wet.and buy more on weakness. Undervalued,misunderstood,and shunned by the all of the doubters,this Is a great opportunity to start accumulating shares of this very well managed company. Third quarter earnings will be released tomorrow (10/28/2010),they should have some good things to say. Onward and upward... TS
