KIS, seriously, you are too emotionally involved with this stock to invest in it one way or
the other. I posted a positive experience with Amazon... nothing earth shattering really....
and you get all worked up. I realize Im having some fun coming back at you (I like to
argue) but you initated this tone. I actually dont own this stock outright - although I own
it in a hedge fund - I do think Amazon is a great company. Theres a guy on the Siebel
thread like you (hates Siebel) and he lost a fortune recently because he cant separate facts
from emotions.

Michelle,

I am likely more guilty on this account than anyone. That is one reason I stopped taking a position in AMZN. I could not detach my emotions from the trend. William Harmond did me a large favor about six months ago. We were debating something about the ethics of AMZN. William astutely stated this is the stock market nothing more and nothing less. I was too eqotistical to listen but my ego was lowered a lot after a few more hundreds of thousands that were lost being short. Chalk a correct comment up to William and I wish I had listened.

William won't get hurt when AMZN fails. He is too quick and smart for that but I can't wait until I get the chance to say I told you so and to thank him for pointing out that this was only the market. Actually, I can take him for that now. It was a good lesson. William, thank you.
