>>Anybody hear the tripe that came out of James Cramer just now about
Yahoo!? Like the "Yellow Pages in the days of Alex. Bell" in terms of
potential. OK, but $3 billion+?<<

Well, it depends on how you look at it. AOL is a $9 billion dollar media comnpany. Time Warner is a $38 billion dollar media company. So, top media companies can be worth quite a bit of money. Certainly more than $3 billion. The long view is that Yahoo, well executed, will take its place in the pantheon within several years. If you still see it only as a search engine with banner ads, by all means short it. If you see it as an emerging media conglomerate playing at the highest level, don't (at least not long-term).

I see the latter.
