Angela, re:<<I love the warmth of these boards..When we are being killed the comfort is nice...>> I think we need to step back for a moment and see what's going on with AOL. First, their earnings report was great...haven't read an analyst's report where they panned AOL for their report. Second, even though the AOL report was great, some think that the momentum players may have wanted to see more...so, these players are leaving. IMO, this is a short-term negative for the stock. Third, it appears that a larger number of the internet stocks are down today, as well as the other tech stocks. It seems that money is once again being moved from the techs into the cyclical stocks. Again, IMO, this is probably a medium to short-term event. Money will again flow into the techs. Look what happened over the past two weeks. Finally, AOL is the blue chip of the internet stocks. Their business plan has proven itself over the past several years. The one negative for the stock is the current/future valuations. I guess the valuation is high because investors are willing to pay for the future growth of the company. By the way, investors include you and me, plus, all the larger institutions that hold the stock...and these are the "professionals" would get paid to make big returns on their investments. Stock Bull
