AOL diehard bulls, turn off your flame thrower just a sec.

my conclusion to the collective dumping of AOL shares by insiders
-----> they have, internally, decided to match MSN step by step, when MSN starts to ad blitz about $12 or lower a month access, which they already offer thru Costco, AOL will respond with matching the offer, if aol doesn't, it will lose memberships and don't give me that AOL premium contents balogna sheesh. strangely enough, I think AOL may benefit in the long run, you want more eyeballs locked to your propiertary system, as MSFT locks up the desktop OS and apps, it simply can not afford to let MSN gain a foothold, the only problem is street will not be kind to that kind of actions, the day price wars news is plastered in the business section of your local newspapers, AOL will probably have reached its lowest price point and will starts to gradually gain back.
