Keith: I guess you've never got stock options grant from your employer. We've talked about this issue on this thread some time ago, and it appears that you still don't understand that the company does not need to keep cash reserve for stock options exercise by exployees. The company simply creates new shares, and this is where the dilutions come from. >>$500 million new common: Possibly needed to cover options grants to employees. This will be problematic for AOL as employees move to cash in on options that are "way in the money" by now. Will only further dilute earnings.
