>>Please do understand and do not underestimate "stupidity of humanity"...Only in America have I seen so much "IGNORANCE". Who's stupid and ignorant? Do you think your posting that BS makes it real? Maybe it's therapeutic for you to vent, but I must respond to your post because it comes across to me as the most cynical piece of denial I have read on this thread in two years. We have waded through a couple hundred posts since last night's results were announced, and I am surprised that only a handful of converts were made here. The trend represented in Yahoo's numbers was truly prodigious...and the big smart money recognized it and reacted today. It's one thing to be wrong. We all make mistakes. But to spin out a bunch of insults in the face of a huge rise in Yahoo's bid, a host of upgrades by the most knowledgeable firms in international finance, and trading volume that broke all previous records is nonsense. Get a grip. When one of your beliefs blows up in your face, and the Street moves with the conviction and relentless determination it did today, it's time to reexamine that belief. Something's wrong with your thinking, and you need to find out what it is. Otherwise you'll just keep making the same fatal mistake over and over. Live and learn.

I think Yahoo will probably see $125 in a jiffy. Powerful momentum. You say you never buy anything when you see those ads on Yahoo, but think about it. How many times do you run out and buy anything you see advertised on TV. Probably never. That's not the point of advertising. Sara Lee doesn't expect any one to buy a strawberry cheese cake when they see the advertising. When that one time comes though, when Uncle Bob visits and he really likes cheesecake do you think you'll recognize Sara Lee when you run out to the grocery store. You bet. That Sara Lee ad probably ran a year ago but the recognition remained. Think about it. Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~^^ [6.6] ......> [_]
