El: No, I missed the "popcorn woman."

They said that the guys who make the packing, like "popcorn" styrofoam(American Excelsior, I think)are really reaping the benefit of all the shipping of product to the individual consumer.

Yes, also companies like FDX and SEE (Sealed Air - the bubble wrap guys). BTW, I once went to a Halloween costume party wearing a "suit" made out of bubble wrap and a sign that said "Pop Me."

jajajajaja

speaking of possible internet winners, here is one for you to be aware of. Realnetworks(rnwk). I am listening to a live lotus conference as I type this post and listening to the CEO of RNWK give the keynote address. this is new technology that uses streaming video( allows you the ability to watch/listen as the info is being downloaded into the temporary file of your computer. Doesn't require a full download before you are able to access it)...pretty neat stuff..
