Bill, like you I see more positive than negative in AOL. However, your prediction about the complexion of this board changing as bears lose money is a bit flawed. I think that very few of these folks have real money invested in their "short positions." It's mostly good natured banter.

When real money is involved, intelligent investors will try their hardest to see the other side of an argument. Generally, people don't do this on this board. Since these are intelligent people for the most part, I have concluded that the actual dollars they have invested must be quite small and this is mostly just for fun.

Regards
