likewise the crash is unexpected and worse than anyone predicted. Given some of the predictions I've seen for Amazon here (bankruptcy within 12 months, IIRC), I don't see how that is possible.

Roger, timing is very difficult with bubble stocks So if I get in for a 1,000 shares at $80 and it goes to $120 I lose $40,000 on paper. Given that the net is growing exponentially my paper losses could be for a long long time. Why bother, I'm interested in your thought processes. Do you feel crash is immenent? Michael Bidder
