Jury,

Thanks, most of what you say makes sense. I still think it will take a while, because most people are creatures of habit, and once on AOL, they will stay there until it gets pretty bad. They have too many other things to do so they don't make changes unless they have to. However, this doesn't add new members, it only keeps old members.

There was one other note. You mentioned $5 / hour access charges. Do you have access charges in addition to the flat rate on AOL? I thought that was only when you used the 800 number (e.g. while travelling.)

Anyway, I'm surprised you got out of the puts. It seems like a longer term play.

Regards,

Marc

P.S. I have to go work on my taxes. Have a good weekend.

JT, Glad to see you're getting back in the saddle!

Just finished a tax return for a guy whose tax bill for the privilege and honor for last year is about $500K. So, he paid for about a half of a cruise missile.

Filled out my preliminary Datek application this evening. Hopefully, I'll be operational in about a week. Sure look forward joining the dudes again!
