    I don't know if you've ever seen the Andy Griffith show in Holland. It's a classic situation comedy series from the early 60s, in six episodes of which the Darling family, a family of mountain people, appeared. Those are six of the best shows in the whole series.

    Sorry to venture that far off topic ... so ... Hey Billy, QXM may not make it, but remember the premise of your observation, i.e. how hard it is for an under $10 stock to get TO $15 ... and QXM did that, even though it didn't close >=15.
    TASR: mentioned it numerous times. Went from $7.75 entry to close yesterday at over $15. Has been as high as $20 of late. Still a good buy at this level.

    ASIA & Team ****

    Woo Hoo!!!, the Barry Bonds of this contest has pulled ahead for a day! Yes it's lead is marred with an asterisk, but I think ASIA pulling ahead with just over 10 trading days left counts for something!!!!

    Maybe I should change my pick to LUNA or WATG.
    Either one has a better chance of getting to $15 from here in 15 days than SIM does.

    Doug,
    I like DAR because it seems like a perfect business for this economy. A putrid purveyor of guts, grease , tallow, and animal biproducts with little competition.
