Yes of course...everybody has a right to express an opinion and to be concerned. I just find that many of the opinions dont have any merit...it's just people shooting at the hip or folks with clearcut agenda's...I just can't get ove this Marvin Manskey fellow. Preaching one minute to sell, then another minute to hold, based simply on his own agenda. If this is what this thread is coming to, then it is a sad, sad thing.

There has been quite a bit of shareholder resentment to this deal (especially on other chat threads). I for one am against this deal. The AOL/Time Warner combo is great but the price is too high! And as a holder of other internet stocks (CMGI AMZN etc), this sets a bad precedent and lowers valuation of all net stocks. Let the old media try to set up their own networks and then they'll see just how much access to the internet is really worth. Last year CMGI squashed a similar deal between Lycos?USA for the same reason. I for one am voting against the deal and would urge all to do the same. 1 for 1, that should have been the deal. Case gave away the store!!!!!!!! JMO
