Who know anything about Zap.com? They are trying to get into the internet portal biz, anyone know anything about them? All I know is they have a ton of money and own lots of nice web sites and they have hired some company to design their "portal". The web site address is zap.com

OK, we've established that dwlima and other true believers are the reason for the continuing high valuations. Now, can somebody please tell me a better way to trade this stock than to mostly be long and only rarely short?? It's the buy and hold psychology of dwlima types that are the motivating force, and until somebody can tell me how to predict when they will give up the ghost, my bias is long even though it is against the conventional logic. Can somebody please tell me how to predict when this stock will become the next NSCP, or IOM, or whatever you think it will become a has-been?? Don't get me wrong, I'm not being critical of your logic, but I've given way too much money away to longs on this stock to ever take much short risk until the beliefs of dwlima et al are broken.
