I don't know Jay, I think they spent their wad too early, or are holding off for a last minute FedEx delivery blitz. In any event, I think the book biz of amazon is an also ran at this stage and the only hope of saving their bacon at these looney levels is to take over the world oil business. They can sell that commodity at a nice loss, like books, and await a recovery. But I think the shipping of individual 42 gallon barrels of oil is going to be tricky. -g- Them current wimps at UPS don't really like to move anything over 5 pounds, or so. -g- Regards, Ice
