>>I appreciate and respect your opinions but its his stockholders money that your talking about, not just yours and his. Judging from this thread, I'd hardly know otherwise! >>All I really want is to see his stock price come back to earth. Great stocks never give you the chance.

Unlike Glen, I don't want to see the 'Thing' go broke. Where else can I buy a book for less than cost? James, You are not buying the book for less than cost. You are buying it for less than it costs AMZn to get you to buy it and they pay more than the average bookstore for their books. I do want to see the "thing" go broke. A business model without a real presence will not work. I am bothered by the amount of millionairs that AMZN has made of the insiders without them ever making a return on invested capital. I admit to being jealous but also to believe strongly that this is wrong. Glenn
