Ok Here's how it will end.
The index will drop 60%
A. Within one month after AT&T or Bell Atlantic buys AOL or YAHOO.
B. Why? Because they will install a coin collector on your PC. To get on the web you will have to deposit 25 cents for 3 minutes... .50 cents if the URL you are trying to reaching is out of your "Calling Area" International calls... FORGET IT!
C. Finally, investors will discover that it isn't the software that runs the web, its the people (managements) that created it as a place of free enterprise and tried to keep it that way.

IT WAS THE PEOPLE that made it great!
