The only one who has "fruit loops" for brains is you if you think AOL's growth rate percentage is higher than that of eBay over the past 3 months or 12 months.

OK, AOL revenues up 65.5 percent from year ago period.

eBay revenues up 469 percent from year ago period.

Let me see: is 469 a bigger number than 65.5?

How about 7 times bigger?

>>There isn't much out there right now that is growing faster then aol........certainly not ebay.

What the heck are you talking about? eBay is growing faster that AOL by every metric, and has far-higher profit margins to boot. If you come back and tell me that eBay is growing from a smaller base, I'll reply that eBay is growing faster than AOL ever did.
