Hi Robbo

Your points have always been understood and agree totally with what you are saying in regards to the ongoing value of ITE, allthough I see nothing wrong with looking forward "anticipating" each stepping stone as it presents itself . There is one point that you made which could possibly be corrected
............................................................................................
Historically .....the (ITE) Half Year Results..... last year.... were on .....the 24th of February...which this year falls on a Saturday

So on that basis; there is not a logical basis why they(ITE) might not wait to report till Monday thru to Wenesday--of.... NEXT week.... as one possible...... completely normal scenario -- as the half years being towards the latter part of this week.... And of course .....the point really being; it does NOT matter..... a fig......not...a fig!!.
...............................................................................

On the ASX announcement page the ITE half year results for 2005 and 2006 were both on the 23/02. 2005 was a Wednesday and 2006 a Friday. However I do notice on the ITE website under Financial announcements 2006 is down as 24/02 ITE's mistake I would think. Given the fact that both years have been on the 23rd on two different days of the week, so on that I believe it will be out on Friday and not Monday if they stick to that same pattern using my lodgic.
So it may not matter a fig as far as the overall rarther large picture goes but it matters to me because every now and then I need feeding :-)

As always Robbo enjoy reading and digesting your posts and you have feed me well today lol
