<<Neil, unless the market tanks tomorrow, I expect AOL will go up. Using the twisted logic of today's investors, restating last Q results to a loss will increase the sequential quarter growth rate and thus justify a higher price based on projecting that growth rate into the future.>>

Given the markets reaction to ZITL's restatement the other day, you could be right.

If its not now, there will be a time. The smoke and mirrors can't last forever. I just don't see how the market is going to justify its current valuation...I see lots of disappointed, confused messages, write-ups around tonight...sell the news?
