I still think that we are missing the obvious. YHOO is fresh on everyone's mind right now, but there is IMO only one combination that would make 80% of all of ATHM's recent problems go away. Don't jump down my throat for this but the answer is (ATHM/AOL). Either merge, or work a deal with Case and you have instant content, subscribers, direction, first page, and short term relief of governmental regulations (giving ATHM the time it needs to work out the bugs). Also this ends AOL's worries about BB access and losing share to ATHM. So TJ might have to compromise, but the company will definitely prosper and ATHM could also work a deal as to get a slice of the dial-up and ADSL pie......! Why is it that sometimes, the simplest answers are the most difficult to fathom? Ron Dior
