You essentially want someone to prove to you that Amazon can turn black on bare-bones fulfillment costs. Is that right? Randy, That is correct! Did you understand in what context they could declare their .com site profitable? What do you make of that? I listened to the conference call twice. I read the analyst's comments that the .com business was profitable. I believe they were referring to the book department. I am not sure. I anycase, there was not enough breakdown to confirm this. I do not believe it. Glenn
