Thank you Granster, Poop and Rig for your comments. OK - I'll just make sure I get up really early every morning to see when we start trading. I had a vision in my mind that I would wake up and miss the whole thing (and be rich) without getting my son's educational account into it! I really would feel bad if I didn't get him some shares too. He's not into education right now but I would love to grow it and make it a nice "carrot" in my hands for him to be more interested. - like having something to fall back on while pursuing an apprenticeship.

So, I guess I will just watch evey morning until I have to leave for work and put a bid in if it is trading. I have a Scotia McLeod account and it shows my holdings for WWF at $0.00 share price so I doubt if I could put a pre-bid in now and will have to wait until it trades again to do anything. Maybe my boss will let me do it from work - he is so great, I might give it a try. I would love to get him to buy this too but he was burned once on the stock market so I probably won't tell him about it although I would love to share.

Have any of you had any experiences about sharing stock tips with others. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? I am a little leary as I think I would feel really responsible if the stock went down and I recommended it to someone. Then again, I would feel bad for not recommending it to the people I care about and then it flew. It is a bit of a dilemma for me - outside of family I mean. I have a very down to earth family: i.e my brother would just be able to tell me to fly a kite (or is that take a hike) and no offence would be taken. (but then I could go na-nah-na-hah-na-yah back when it flew - and buy him his favourite whiskey and no offence would be taken either!) Not the same with friends or colleagues though. What are other people's thoughts about this.
