Good morning Sonki. About margin. I have to check it again. Last thing I remember is that you can't deduct margin interest if you claim long term gains. I guess what I should be checking for is if I can claim long term cap gains if I have enough short term gains to offset the interest. I have not claimed any long term gains in the last sev. years. I am holding those. But you know that the IRS works in mysterious ways. Like getting you every which way. gg.

Naw. I won't blame you if Sunw goes up more. I did that already way back. My mistake was: I should never have sold my Sunw in 97 when I was in Seattle and the market tanked big time. That's when I also had to sell 1ooo sh. of Intel because of my margin.

Sheesh. You are 1 step ahead of me again. Buying PCLN. I talked about it but have not bought it yet. But like I said in my PM. I am not short of internets.

RNWK. I heard that MER mentioned RNWK this morning as a stock to own. So. Maybe my mentioning it to you yesterday was pretty timely or maybe yet too late again. gg. But I did mention it way back when it was cheap.

Yeah. I gave up on Barron's a cpl of years ago.

BTW. Thanks for the Kudo on my summary on the AOL thread. I wanted to make sure that investors don't think that Case said they SHOULD buy AOL stock. It was directed at S.Ballmer. But it was great that S.Case said he thinks AOL is undervalued.
It was a great interview with Case, wasn't it? Let's see if the stock reacts to it this morning.

I was wrong about a down opening this morning before it goes up, I guess. The futures have turned around. I won't complain though.

Sonny
