almost-on-line does it again. they sure know how to piss people off. i'm
switching to earthlink especially after reading they are giving aol users a
break on the set up fee and change of address notices to inform fellow
emailers that we have left almost -on-line (thank goddess, for the shove!)
call 888-QUIT-AOL. this is not an endorsement for earthlink as i use
worldnet at home - it's just a way to get back at steve case !!

Good questions for the analysts. You see, there is this thing call the internet that is gonna be the greatest thing since sliced bread (it already is) and cheap people (most users) will poor money on it like hell... and AOL, Yahoo and another handful will benefit greatly from it and make a ton of $$$$, more than the [TV] networks, more than the networking hardware vendors, and if you don't buy right away, you will miss the greatest investment opportunity of the century! Forget MSFT, INTC, MO, PG, T, and all the rest these are the stocks of the past. These companies can not compare to the earnings potential of the internet stocks (thoughts like these are going through the heads of many so called smart investors) Ahhh one more thing ... the internet stocks are Asian proof...
