Speaking of search engines; try this one out (The best I have ever found):

dogpile.com

This is not a joke, it's a search engine; don't let the name "dogpile" mislead you. If anyone can explain how "dogpile" relates to this "best ever" search engine, please let me know. Also, let me know how your test drive experience was. I can find in 30 seconds what it takes me hours to find on other web searches.

Also a good stock research site to add to your favorites (if you don't already have this one:

stockmaster.com

I can get 5 years of earnings history from this one; along with other goodies.

enjoy, jim

Mozaic Helps Launch the First True Internet Bank to Offer Direct Internet Lending

February 2, 1999

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE) via NewsEdge Corporation -- Mozaic Investor Relations, a full-service financial communications firm, today is launching USAccess Bank, the nation's first Internet bank to provide direct Internet lending.

Located at usaccessbank.com, USAccess Bank offers customers the advantages of the Internet--speed, convenience and value - with the product breadth and security of a well-managed, well-capitalized, FDIC-insured financial institution. The bank is a division of The Central Bank USA, Inc., a subsidiary of the half-billion-dollar family of Porter Bancorp financial institutions in Kentucky.

Mozaic partnered with USAccess Bank in mid-1998, developing communication strategies to promote the bank and its array of products. "USAccess Bank brings the future of banking to the present," said Terry McWilliams, president and founder of Mozaic Investor Relations. "We're delighted to be part of the team that makes banking fresh and exciting."

McWilliams said Mozaic will help position USAccess Bank with national news, financial and technology media and will provide ongoing communication counsel. "USAccess Bank offers great products with some of the best rates in the country," said USAccess Bank Senior Vice President of Marketing Amy Hamburg. "We are accessible by Internet or telephone 24 hours a day, every day."

As the first true Internet bank to offer direct online lending along with deposit products, free bill payment, discount brokerage services and other financial services, USAccess Bank is the future of banking.

****************************************

FWIW, I just called Terry McWilliams, from Moasic, and he conceded that they are NOT REALLY the first Internet Bank. He in fact admitted that the headlines were a btoit mis leading. "They are the first Internet bank to offer full internet loans. Claiming that NetBank uses off line sources for something or another"

Don't know what Bobby B. would have to say about it, though I doubt it's much of a big deal to them
