Some news, whatever that mean...

Group Threatens AOL on E-Mail
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A group that says it represents small Internet businesses has threatened to make public the e-mail addresses of 5 million America Online members if AOL continues to bar the businesses from pitching products to its subscribers. The Chino, Calif.-based National Organization of Internet Commerce plans to post the e-mail addresses on the Internet on Jan. 8. AOL, the world's largest Internet provider, said it would take legal action if needed to protect its 10 million members.

Mike,

The 90 puts for January are asked $4 because the stock at 4:02, when the options last traded, was below $90 at about 89 3/8. AOL then shot up on the other exchanges, most likely as a result of last minute shorts taking losses for tax reasons, to the 90 1/2 closing price reported.
