Don, welcome back. Re Eventually AMZN will run out of cash and will issue new stock, give it six months or less. They must be burning a lot of cash building distribution centers and paying for Web visibility because, even though they had $48mm three months ago, they borrowed $75 million this week. As I noted when the loan deal was first disclosed, there are significant financial "incentives" to pay this off in six months. Funny thing is that the market apparently views this as a positive. Bob
