2) & 3) - Yes.

During the mini-hiccup we had in October AOL responded quite well, about -10, if I remember right. However, 2) more inpmortant. The first big sdvertiser to sigificantly reduce spending with AOL or to pull the plug will get this one revalued in a hurry!

1) is immaterial. Subscribers that stick with them are not terrribly savvy (please don't flame me folks). AOL does have a brand name that will continue to suck in the newbies for a while into the future.

Good luck. I'm just watching for now.
