<<If you're trying to fuel a bear argument, so be it. But don't lie about facts.>> True or False: AMZN's U.S. book sales declined in 99Q2, compared to 99Q1? I submit that the only reasonable interpretation of the data is that this statement is true. As far as lying about the facts, I was referring to the following article from the New York Times. The entire article is at the link below. If you subscribe to the NYT online, the link which I supplied will link you to the primary source. <<The percentage of people with Internet access who are making purchases from Web sites declined slightly in the second quarter of 1999 after four sequential quarters of spectacular growth, according to Greenfield Online Inc. The study by Greenfield, a Westport, Conn., Internet marketing research firm, hints at the limits of market penetration of the medium as a shopping platform -- suggesting a ceiling that has been unknown until now.>> www2.techstocks.com Best Regards, Tom D P.S.
