Hi Barry,

Oh I will enjoy the ride...I've been long since before it hit $25 and I was hating life then, so I realize these things go up an then follow the laws of gravity (or elasticity when going down.) I absolutely agree that knowing when to take profits is the most important thing (and also one of the most difficult) but I think I'll hang in for a bit longer (hope I'm not getting too greedy.)

I don't necessarily agree with your long-term point of view except that it probably will be a very different company in the next few years -- but dead? I think that may be a bit too drastic for my way of thinking. Also as far as your restaurant analogy....AOL has a little over 8 million cars parked out in front. :-)

I've been on the other side like many of you guys are now and I know it sucks (so I'm not gonna gloat like some people do)... but lets keep our speculation within reason, OK?

see ya around...

Mike
