AOL sucks!!!!!!!!!!! I subscribed to AOL couple of years ago. I had to cancel because they constantly kept logging me of in the middle of a download. Which means if I was downloading Service Pack3 for NT on a 28.8 baud after midnight that took 6 hrs and if I did not respond to their stupid and mindless message box that asked me if I wanted to continue by waking up in the middle of my sleep they would log me off. They could not distinguish between a download and someone in the chat room. I called them up and hinted to have their degenerate and incompetent programmers look into their code for it was a simple matter of adding an if statement to fix this problem and they did not. If you really want to talk about fundamentals rather than making money, I tell you AOL sucks. I am in the business of making money and thats all I care about and I agree with happy_girl. I also believe that world is not perfect and there will always be shorts and longs. You can be short and I will be long which I have been since YHOO was at 92 and I don't have to look over my shoulders a bit. And look where YHOO is today at 251 1/2 post split. You call yourself a true Christian. Thats blasphemy, a joke. Go read your Bible and tell me which verse in the bible says that gambling is good. That is what we all are doing. Nothing in this world is perfect. I would never be short any stock for that matter. I would rather be long then bet against this powerful US economy.
