I split the .com's into two groups; first the infrastructure players like BVSN or VIGN that are growing in leaps and bounds but were not going to sustain multi-hundred dollar stock prices for long. They will find a new level here as long as their technology stays in demand.

It's the KOOP's and all the other ratty little retailers and information sites that should not have been listed on a stock exchange until they proved they could make some money. Pouring money into marketing while trying to sell ads or low-margin retail goods is not a viable business plan, IMHO.

The biggest pimps here were not the dot.com CEO's making millions at 25. It was the whoremasters on Wall Street raking in millions underwriting IPO's that their retail investors were bound to get creamed in.

But that's how the game is played. The odds don't favor the little guy, now or ever.
