Here's a tough question for you William. Are you basing that prediction upon your prediction of human nature, ie there are millions of clueless daytraders out there that will gladly bid up AOL to a market cap greater than MSFT, as long as the stock splits every 6 months to keep the price "near 100" in the idiot's eyes?

Or are you saying they will begin to earn more money than AT&T and Microsoft combined, to justify a P/E of around 40?

It's one or the other.. Which do you believe?

What about your fans who are scared and wondering why AOL is at 115? Won't this
dishearten them, perhaps force them to cover "too early"? What do you have to say to the
fans, KIS? Are you abandoning them to fend for themselves? I don't think they will find
it boring if AOL's market cap eclipses Microsoft.

AOL now up 10:-)
