Tom, just curious about the valuations of these internet stocks you
are shorting.

stock PSR (TTM)
USWB 15
NTKI 27
ONSL 5
SPLN 25
PTVL 15

for comparison:
YHOO 51
AMZN 12
AOL 6

* What makes USWB, ONSL, and PTVL so attractive to short, when you
can get such a higher PSR with NTKI and SPLN?

* In general, a stock with a PSR > 20 has very little room for
disappointment, but nevertheless, YHOO has managed to consistently
defeat short-sellers who sell on that argument, so what will make
your picks different?

These are just friendly questions. I have no positions in any of
these.
