Aren't those the same reasons you would have cited for shorting AOL when it was in the 20s, 30s and 40s? Me personally, I wish I had bought even more at those prices.

As I've said all along, AOL has some of the elements that make it appear to be a good short. But you need the complete list for that strategy to work. Not only that, as the past few weeks have clearly shown, AOL has some attributes that make it very unpredictable and dangerous for short sellers.
