"What do you see in VUSA that differentiates it from the hundreds of other dime-a-dozen e-tailers? What makes it worth owning over some other FooBar.Com?" Gerald, Good point about the hypercompetitive etailing space. I think VUSA will be one of the big winners over time, however, as they have a crisp and competent marketing approach that is based on building win-win virtual stores with large groups such as school systems, ministries, etc. VUSA is run by retailers, not technologists, and they have a clear vision about how to succeed on the net long-term by marrying mainstream America with the power of the net. I too bought too earlier, in the upper teens, but I'm not losing sleep over this puppy. VUSA is being washed away by the net carnage, but will eventually show its capabilities. VUSA also has deep pockets (Allen and co.) and Fred Smith is very active on the board. This is a keeper. To get the concept, check out the following virtual VUSA store: va.com Good luck to all VUSA longs. Regards, Craig A. Anderson
