The next thing that will hit the press is all the people dropping
the service. Paul Harvey already mentioned getting a busy signal
when calling the special phone number to drop the service.

Compuserve said they have gotten a flood of new customers.

Also, AOL customers I personally know are disgusted with the refund offer.
3 I personally know are going to push for a refund and drop the
service. Everyone who was lucky enough to get on line couldn't
go anywhere or do very much for the time spent. They think they are
entitled a full refund even if they spend more than 8 hrs.
Reason, it was a poor quality 8 hrs. I checked out the situation
myself and spent 45 minutes of time doing what it normally takes
5 minutes of time with my own ma & pa net service.

What will the price do, I'm buying puts. I think it is going to drop.
The last rally was much weaker than before for AOL, we are is a possible 3
week down or flat cycle, and the over all market is toying with all
time new highs, also the January effect is going to be over very soon.
I don't see AOL moving up very much. Every day it goes up is another
put buying opportunity. Stock prices always fall much faster than go
up. When this one breaks the 50 Moving Average line you won't be
able to buy put contracts fast enoughs.

I'm betting the priced is headed for the 25 or less level buy April.
I don't know when the subscription numbers come out but AOL is in
for a surprise.

The way they are handling the refunds is making people mad. Sat. I'll
be going the a computer users group and can see what my other
friends have to say.

I see no bullish move up.
