>but why conclude that he is bitter because he does not go with the crowd?

Because it is easier to discount my arguments as the rantings of a "bitter angry man" than to actually read and consider them, especially when you've just mortgaged the house to buy another thousand shares of Ebay.

(or for those in the bay area in a 1500 square foot home on 1/8th acre of land, 8000 shares of ebay)

Nope... I don't like the fact that he questioned my technical ability after reading a post I made one day that was upbeat about Amazon. Frankly I don't think he would have done that if I were not a woman. Thats why I don't like him. I had the absolute most technical position you can have in enterprise software btw.

No, GST. KIS is clueless. He's clinging to the one-dimensional fact that these stocks are exceptionally expensive as reason enough that's it's wrong to be long...and reason enough to conclude that these prices are a product of stupid newbie online daytraders.

He's keeping it simple alright. I'd engage if there was more there. There isn't...only accusations of ignorance and premonitions of doom.

KIS, tell us. What have you made all this money in? Tell us what you think of Lycos' claim today of portal preeminence. Tell us whether the DoubleClick Network is gaining or losing share. Tell us something we haven't heard besides that the sky will fall and we're simple newbie day-trading fools courting certain disaster.

KIS can be right. These values may all implode. But that's as far as anyone can take the argument. Meanwhile a real, lasting, global industry is being born like the Big Bang.
