Glenn, joking? According to Aol there are 18mil paying users, what I'm talking about is here on SI, the Amzn thread. It appears that of the 20 or so participants here, I might be the only one using Aol as an ISP. James, This is not accurate. I do not know if it would be appropriate for me to name those I am aware of that use AOL as their ISP and are active on this thread. Many do not have their email address in their profile. Let me say I know for sure about 25% on this thread use AOL. Also, SI in general is likely not a good representation of the AOL user. The Motley Fool board would be a better comparison but is likely tilted towards AOL. I am not sure how a pole should be done but I suspect random sampling of financial sites is not an accurate measure. AOL caters to the middle income and the non computer literate. You excluded here. Did you know that there are some investors here that think what we do and say here effects our stocks up or down? I think not! None what so ever! I know not! Have you noticed that I no longer have a position in Amzn or eBay? Yes; is there a reason? Glenn
