Attention all: Realmoney makes a "long" call. AVBC AquaVie Beverage Corp. I've been in it for a while. Average about $.41. It closed at $.59 today and seems to be gaining some momentum. Don't get me wrong, this one might be a fraud too, but if it is, all the better(for the short term). Just don't be silly and fall in love with the company. Once you've made a nice profit, get out. I don't know why I'm giving this to you guys except to show I'm not always short. What the hell, we're all here to make money. Except the paid promoters, of course. They've already been paid.

Hey everyone, I have a general question. As anyone knows reading this thread for the last month, I am long WCTI and really like the company and its management. So the fact that I bringing up this question indicates that I am not blindly long the stock. Anyway, have you checked out most of the search engines these days?

Just for fun, I checked out Lycos, Altavista and Infoseek. They all have a "table of contents" frame on the left. In the case of Lycos there are descriptions that you can review before going to the actual site.

Granted, they don't have the level of detail that Spyhop will, but they seem to have the same look and feel of the Spyhop site. So while they won't take you to the page level of where you search criteria is located, they will take you to the general site.

This may be good enough for the general user. Because Spyhop has an "in context" search capability, it is superior but perhaps that advantage is only appreciated by academics or people that need a fine grained search. Perhaps the coarse grained search of other engines is good enough for the average user...

Anyone think I am nuts? If this is true, then perhaps the advantage that Spyhop has in terms of fine grained in context searches is a lesser need for the mass market of Internet users out there...
