>>I've been pissed off about AOL for about 6 months. I feel like Rocky with IOM.<< Brent - I think all your points about AOL are valid. On the other hand, a lot of people sign up with AOL because everyone they know is on it. It's analagous to the Zip situation in a way. Actually, Rocky seems to be right about AOL. "The Street" is never actually of one mind, of course, but certainly investors have been willing to give AOL huge valuations based on virtually no evidence of real earnings or earnings growth. And you'll notice that Rocky doesn't say that he thinks AOL is actually a good investment. Only a good trading play. Obviously Rocky has some kind of weird obsession with IOM, but hey, he can't be wrong all the time about everything. - Allen
