Hey, Tom, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. The public library has free books. So go short Borders, Barnes and Nobles, and Amazon LOL. I bet if they had know about this, there never would have been any booksellers around for the last hundred years.

Try breaking into the public library at 12 midnight to check your email or chat with friends.

Do you seriously think that people are going to give up the 10's of millions of PC's already purchased and installed in their homes, schlep down to their local libraries to save 20 bucks? Surely your kidding.... or delusional.

The one good thing about your post.... it points to an overall bearish (doomsday like) tone on this thread and on Yahoo in the past day or so. Things were beginning to get down right giddy which is always a bad sign. If the contrarian indicator holds true, this weakness we have seen since the earnings announcement won't last.

Holding Jan leaps and loving it...

now back to lurking

Thomas, you sound like an old man but your opinion makes
you a stupid kid!

Library allows people to use their internet with time limit
unless you are in a library where nobody uses the internet
except you, the usage allowance usually is 15-20 minutes.

Who is going to trade stock in library's PC?

Who writes e-mails from library's PC?

Who is doing e-business in library?

Only people like you do that, the cheap ones!

If you are so cheap, why bother us? We are far rich than
you think we are because we can afford AOL stock!

Go BS the penny stock thread, you are the worst short seller
by far on this board, simply NO CALSS and Cheap!
