OT: Short term I think all is well. Long term, should this thing in the Balkans get worse, I have a young son who may be impacted. Not to mention many 'young sons and daughters'. The markets be dammed. One hair on my sons head is worth more to me than stocks. RULE #1 in war: Never fire so much as one shoot unless you're prepared to, "give your enemy all the war he can stomach". When you've made the decision to fire, like it or not, it's all about killing people and breaking things - you fight to win as quickly as possible. In the end more lives are lost or put at risk if you don't follow this course from the beginning and I'm afraid our CnC has not a clue of this fact. No more than LBJ did. Sorry for getting off on this. Thanx again for helping make this stock thing so profitable$$$ I do appreciate your many posts. I'll be 'lurking'. OT

" By the way Vendit, thanks for all your posts." Vendit as you appear to be one of the thread leaders, and know a lot about the more complicated areas of investing, can you tell me... What's the difference between a "stop loss" order and a "stop limit" order. I saw where someone suggested here (think it was you or Voltaire) that we put a sell at order on AOL to protect profits, and went to Fidelity Online to do that in my portfolio and have these two options. Also anyone with a suggestion of an appropriate sell number?
