Lee and Everett: Could not agree more. Glenn, as always, I'm monitoring the Fool closely and one of the TMFs just posted this again. <<<2. Amazon could very well be profitable right now if it spent zero this quarter, beginning now, on marketing expenses. So how much in sales does it need to be profitable? Ultimately, that's up to management. Same with AOL -- what kind of operating margins can AOL achieve? That's up to management, but right now it's mostly about spending, not earning -- which is why the concern that Barron's has with AOL's P/E is misguided.>>> Could you re-post any of the iterations of your rebuttal to this argument. The guy arguing with the fool (yes lower case) keeps posting things there that he picks up from here and Yahoo!'s board, so he may stumble across this as well. PS I hate to ask you this with people like IMPRISTINE and BATEMAN here, but if there's an email you could post at some point, there have been things that I've wanted to share with you from time to time, but don't feel comfortable posting on a public forum (Hi tech investor phone number for one). If not, I understand. LP
