Have you been smoking dilithium crystals again? -GGG-

Seriously, you may be right, but it would be simply luck -- this stock has not traded based on fundamentals for years, Captain.

Personally, I really wouldn't be suprised to see the stock trade up. The price seems to have a strange reaction to genuinely bad news!

That said, when the bottom does fall out I suspect the fall will be rather rapid indeed. Are you short or have puts? I am considering a position, but will watch tomorrow and perhaps Monday.

Good luck, Jim and keep the phasors on "stun" O.K. -GGG-

The number of 9 mil customer base could be inflated! I was wondering how many free members are there. It is easy for you to register as a AOL member, but you can never cancel it online! You have to call them, then you'll be put on hold, and then the AOL reps will offer you another free month. After the month, they will offer you another free month again...
