Sam, by America Online "subs" do you mean submissives? No wonder AOL
wanted to sell the subs home phone numbers to marketers, AOL subs are
mostly unsophisticated pushovers. AOL has restored ethnicity to the
Internet.

When cable TV Internet providers take off will subs pay their cable
Internet provider *and* AOL when they no longer need to? AOL will be
reduced to a free access web site. Unless AOL starts selling
pornography there's not that much profit in it.

Here's a look at the hope priced into cable TV Internet providers:

Cablevision, $70, book value -190.00/share:
biz.yahoo.com

@Home, $28.50, book 7 cents, profit margin -2192%:
biz.yahoo.com

AOL could be valued correctly or it could be the cable TV Internet
providers, but both valuations cannot be correct. At least one group,
possibly both, must be greatly overvalued.
