Hi Glenn:

You just know all those who purchase goods off the net pay the state use tax <gg>. Business has to (they are audited too often not to) and I'm sure all the law abiding citizens do as well.

Actually if I remember corectly @ the beginning AMZN raided the top IT guys from WMT. It would not surprise me for wmt to be looking @ amzn's site (assets). Its much better than wmt's.

As for buying the company well someone will @ some point in time. The sooner its on the block the more (since down the road they won't get a dime) current shareholders have a chance of obtaining $$'s. Bezos knows this. He can read a balance sheet.

Of course in this market false rumors fly.
