This has nothing to do w/EFA or Caroline, they're probably just buying
everything from Valley (California one-stop, prob. wholesales CR CD's to
stores for around $11) and selling at low prices to boost stock value and
overall volume. Classic 90's business move (Amazon.com? They STILL haven't
made one cent but their stock has doubled, and doubled, and doubled...),
you bulk up on raw transactions, cull investors to fuel the frenzy, and
just sit back and wait. Sooner or later somone's bound to buy yr corp, and
in 3 years they'll be worth $200 Million and have a nice cushy corner
office in a big building in Seattle, and we'll all have shelves of Dutch
East/Caroline/Koch import CD's that we got @ $3 below domestic CD cost.
Fair enough... -Våt
