I currently don't have ATHM. I always believe that AOL is going to destroy the issue. Apparently, the market does not think so...... The problem with ATHM is that it's rallying every day. I sure wish that it will retreat to provide a nice entry point for me. good luck, larry!

Not particularly relevant, but amusing. Bureaucracy sucks. It's beyond me why anyone thinks more will improve things. Steering Clear of High-Tech Gear Didn't Free Broker of Y2K Woes interactive.wsj.com "Last summer, Ralph Hinzman was sent a set of forms by the National Association of Securities Dealers so he could provide information about his firm's year-2000 readiness to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Hinzman, who makes about $20,000 a year selling mutual funds out of a home office in Weston, W. Va., doesn't even own a fax machine, so he wrote across the top page, "I don't have a computer. I don't know how to fill out these forms," and mailed it back to the NASD. A second set of forms arrived several months later, and Mr. Hinzman repeated the process. Some phone calls followed, and he explained that he wasn't expecting any year-2000 problems, because he had no PC. Nevertheless, Mr. Hinzman's business, Allegheny Financial Programs, was among the dozens of brokers charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission with missing the deadline for filing the forms. He paid $5,000 to settle the case and is still angry about it."
