William, if you are long YHOO, you should use the gamblers help site as well, you are gambling just as much as anyone that is short this stock. Valuations remain a pure joke. Mike Murphy made a great point. Ad budgets are bulging, and when they start to decrease, YHOO and other internet wonders will be the first to get cut, why? Advertisers are getting little in return. I use YHOO everyday, and I have never clicked or even bothered to look at a single ad. The internet is a pure trial for advertisers at this point. Vinman

With all due respect Mr. Harmond, I don't think it's fair to say that people shorting YHOO at 125 are gamblers. No more than you being long. Not long or short YHOO, and I covered my SEEK short near the close. Actually I covered earlier in the day and reshorted but what's the difference. I want plenty of cash to ride the next 500% gainer for tomorrow. Why mess with 5% moves in a day when I can double my money in some low liquidity ponzi scheme? Who says those second tier "internet" plays aren't worth it William? 100-600% in one day sounds worth it to me. KTEL 2 for 1 split, heh heh heh, I called that one on the nose. Just remember folks, KTEL could do the same thing as OCCF. If their stock keeps climbing the way it has been they might announce a 2 for 1 split. They won't even have to have a good reason for it like OCCF didn't have, all they have to do is say that the float is too small and doesn't provide enough liquidity, so in the best interest of shareholders they are doing a 3 for 1 split or something like that.
