LOL Craig, I do think that AOL is a mattress type of stock, although I think checking it every six months might be preferable to every year or two. I am still concerned about competition in the bandwidth area, though I know AOL is actively working to get into high bandwidth delivery. Along that line, I don't know if you saw the deal between Microsoft and Qwest that was announced yesterday. Qwest is one of the largest growing suppliers of bandwidth, with fiber optics. As far as AOL's growth into Latin America, it makes sense, as a natural continuation of their global strategy to penetrate international markets.
