Actually, I think you and Mike Burke are the last two...so you had better be careful and lock the doors. Remember, they are watching. An unconfirmed rumor has it that James Carville had your FBI records shipped to the White House.

***Brokers with AMZN Shares to Short***

These brokers are among the Top 20 in the lending and trading
of AMZN shares. There are others but these guys will let you
open an individual account. I've short this stock through my Merril account but noticed the same thing can't be done with
some discounters.
