>>>They just need to use the word Internet in a couple of press releases. There is nothing wrong with putting a stock in play...if you followed the launch of Yahoo, then Lycos last year....Excite went out of their way to get out 'me too' press releases...Seek was then the last to figure this out...now everybody knows about them. Same thing should happen here in e-commerce land....and I really don't care...what price they take it to. We're not in play yet...but could be it what is in store falls in place and is popular with consumers. Go ahead trade this thing a 1000x...ain't gonna piss me off.

Revisited....They just need to use the word Internet in a couple of press releases. Might not hurt to add 'portal' to the list of extened words...like in 'leading provider of a secure internet banking portals'...got Yahoo! taking out 9 Billion in Market Cap Today...LOL.

They just need to use the word Internet in a couple of press releases. If anybody still doubts it, get this: Zapata [ZAP] skyrocketed 2 7/8 to 12 3/4, or more than 29 percent, on news that the marine protein and food-packaging company decided to break off part of its corporation into a publicly traded Internet entity. Called Zap, the new Internet spin-off said Monday that it is planning to buy or invest in 21 Internet sites and businesses. Tuna factory goes Internet and stock goes up 29%!?
