>>But the best reason why AMER (AOL) is a great stock is this... It is the only pure on-line play out there. WRONG!!! Telescan is a better play. TSCN. AS more babay boomers get into stock investing they will discover TSCN. Are you aware that AOL cooks it's books? By that I mean they call an advertising expense an advertising asset. I understand they have 10 Million in advertising expenses calling it an asset. Last year they only made what 1 million? How will they pay for it? Do you know that 80% of the reason people stick to an on-line service is to get e-mail. Have you heard their 2 FREE e-mail service. Yes, absolutely FREE. One service now has over 700,000 users. Have you seen that several services have with drawn the stuff they provide to AOL and have opened their own web sites? Are you aware there is a Financial News Letter that specializes is shorting stocks and AOL is one of their picks? I for one will buy put options. Give me reason not to and I'll listen. TT
