Based on PBLS 2006 unaudited numbers, faith in PA's statement that the O/S is 815M and a slightly thinner margin than PA's 10% (based primarily on the fact that much of their revenue books from Pro-gas which has very low margins). Of course since these are unaudited numbers, I don't expect to trade at a multiple yet. Either way, it's nice to know that you are essentially buying right now at the EPS for 2006!!

Take the time to dig just a little into this company, ie how verifiable it is with real businesses, real products, real people and no pipe dream pinky video patents, CIA technologies, top secret super-oil finds, russian diamond czars, titanium golf clubs that promise you instant scratch golf etc etc, and you might just end up holding this pinky a little longer than you expected to. You could also end up holding this a little longer than you expected to b/c PA's "soon"=later and "very soon"=feels like potentially never but wait whats that in the distance mirage or promised oasis???? ;)
Good Luck,
