I have seen the comparisons before. Remember back in August/September? We had 98% correlation with the Dow chart of 1929 and the Naz of today and back then, we were a day away from the crash of 1999. If predicting the next crash was as easy as matching charts from previous crashes, we wouldn't need to do any other TA as there is a limited set of crashes and it would be an easy exercise. And everyone would know about it and this in itself would negate it. IMO, our next crash will be as unique unto itself as past crashes have been. The only people that will be spared are the piffers<g>

just want to jump in with a comment on AOL here. (have been lurking this thread). while it may be a bit slow getting out of the gate, AOL-TWX is going to be one of the mega companies of the 21st centuries. One of the biggest concerns about AOL was their lack of broadband. well, in one fell swoop, they acquired the #2 cable modem co, the #2 cable TV systems, and more content than any other co. think it is a very attractive investment at this price, and a steal if it goes lower. jmho. larry
