God forbid! I just dropped AOL if it merges with Compuserve I'll
have drop it too.

Seriously Compuserve was smart enough to not offer unlimited service.
No way will they merge.

I think two losers like AOL and Prodigy would more likely get together.

Now that all the people are pissed off at not being able to use
the AOL unlimited service I bet they go back to a timed service or are
forced to by the telephone companies. When that happens, all those
who bought into the unlimited service will be pissed again and go to
local $10 a month unlimited services.

All those little net providers AOL thought they could wipe out by
changing their rates will be getting the new pissed off AOL customers.
By the time all this has happened, AOL will show bad membership numbers,
worse income & expense numbers, and the price will be below $25 a share.

So why not buy some Feb 35 put options at $2.00 before they are worth
$12.00. With the down turn in the DOW etc this should be a cinch.
