Checking the historical charts, it appears the closest ISAC has been to
$5.00 was back in April-May of '98 and has been steadily declining steadily
ever since. I would question the veracity of the post.......russ

Subject: How I made my $
>Well, many of you have been asking me how i made my 3,000 in 21,000.
>In one month. First of all i would like to thank everybody who replied
>to my earlier post Need Advice..., thank you for sharing your advice
>and experiences with me. Now, i have my account under my parents name,
>so that is why i can trade and have a margin account. Well, my first
>huge break was AAGP--Active Apparel Group. You probably heard about
>them in late December. I was on Christmas vacation, so i had time to

>had dropped back down. Then i thought What will happen when they
>actually open their Internet site? So i bought 500 shares at 1 1/8.
>I kept it for a couple days and it went up to 1 1/4 and was not moving
>much. But then the day they announced the open of their Internet site
>the shares went from 1 1/4 to 11. I sold that day at 11. But then
>the next day it went up to 25. Boy was i pissed. So i decided to
>sell short. I sold 500 shares short @ 20 5/8. I knew that the stock
>was totally over valued. The next day the stock went down to about 9.
> And i bought to cover then. Another stock i made more than a 100%
>return. It was ISAC. I had bought this stock at 2 1/16. And it was
>down to 1 at times. So i had lost more than 1/2 of my money. Then
>one day over break at the end of the trading day, i saw that the
>volume was raising and the price was going up. It still closed under
>2. But i decided to watch it at the market open. Within the first 5
>minutes of the first day it was up to about 2 1/2. I put at limit
>order to sell at 3. Then i saw that the bid was still going up, so i
>canceled and changed it to 4 1/8. It was still going up, so then
>again i canceled and changed the order to sell limit 5. It went to 5
>and i sold. The high for the day was reached around that time and it
>was 5 3/4. Then that same day the price went back down under 2.
>Currently, it is at 1 and something. Currently, i own SMTK. I bought
>2000 shares @ 1 1/4. It is now priced at 2 11/16. A 115% gain. This
>stock's 52 week high is about 33, and right now it is dramatically
>undervalued. I am going to hold on to this baby for a while. I think

>Interestingly enough, all the stocks i have picked in the last 2
