Good to see the bears have all come back on this thread :-)

Is it me, or am I seeing the same points brought up again and again? AOL is just an ISP with content, subscriber growth slowing, AOL is a dog, idiots buying the stock, etc etc.

I guess for every bear on this thread there are 1,000 others subscribing to the AOL service every week. True, subscriber growth may not be as robust as it was in the past...but I see 10 million in AOL's future by year end. Not to shabby. I think that would put AOL 8 million members ahead of its nearest competitor. As for not making money with 9 million subs - not making it with 90 million subs - quarterly earnings will be out next month. Let's all get our calculators out to see what earnings come in at.

Good luck to all the short positions and put holders...itchy trigger fingers are needed....

S. ...awaiting another Bob "Pitchman" deal!
