Even though I'm out of YHOO (having earned $12k in my IRA in 4 months) I disagree with your statement about consumers being apprehensive about shopping on the net. I've been doing so for over 2 years purchasing airline tickets, CD's, hotel reservations, tour packages, stocks and flowers. If anything my internet shopping is increasing the more comfortable I get using the net. Your statement that on line shopping will actually decrease the closer we get to Christmas is illogical. Given a choice of spending hours driving, parking and bumping into a mob of shoppers versus spending a few minutes on the internet. Granted, there are things that are difficult to shop for on the internet like a suit where exact measurements need to be made or TV's which all look alike on a web page but for the most part if you know what you're looking for and have done your homework internet shopping is a breeze. The fact that you are shorting YHOO speaks for itself. Best of luck! Steve
