    Good call, Chris Ryser. You predicted correctly. I guess this news answers the original post regarding shareholders, who are no doubt dining on filet minon and champagne tonight.

    This is the worst of the worst. Not because they are online (which is bad, bad, bad, bad) but because they've deregulated vision care up there, which is anathema.

    Thank you drk for waking up ..................................... it needed all the facts that were brewing for years because for them it is all planned.

    They are now the king of the on-line opticals and probably will purchase some more to beat their competition in sales of frames and lenses.

    They now own: all of them are at http://optochemicals.com/web_listing.htm, onliners towards the bottom of page.

    Frames Direct

    Glasses.com

    Clearly Contact

    GKB India

    This makes them the largest optical on line retailer world wide.

Not to mention, the huge losses in the mega millions makes the acquisition cost very attractive while providing a great tax offset and savings to the entire company.
    So, idispense, I posted this one day before the big news. You always thought I was nuts and said it would never happen. As Hannibal of the A-Team used to say, I love it when a plan comes together.

    I would suggest that all of you look forward from now on. instead of tracking backwards, because the future is a lot more important ..........................what will happen from now on is important.

    And ECP's boycotting Evil E is a big step in the direction.
