Glenn, I will bet you amzn is still around in 3 years, although they may go bankrupt. I'll bet you 50 shares of csco:>) If I win you have to sell me a 5 carat(sp) diamond at cost. No funny stuff <VVVBG> Gene, I am sorry but I do not want the bet. I would be happy to bet they go bankrupt. I believe Morris was right when he said AOL will absorb them at some point. A five carat diamond. You did spell carat correctly as it is used in diamond carat weight. The other karat is for gold content. We need to define cost. 1. Is cost what I paid at the time I bought it? 2. Is cost what is costs to replace it at the time of purchase? 3. Is cost today's cost but you pay the going cost in three years? I am happy to offer number 3. <G>
