Robert. I don't get mad if someone has a diff. opinion. I just think it's a nuisance when someone badgers just for the sake of it. I don't mean you. Most opinions ARE important. That's why we are on SI. At least I would think so. But some posters just use language like down the drain we go, you are all losers etc. This never helps anyone. Anyhow. When I heard first thing this morning that WCOM is thinking about joining the bidding, I wanted to post right away but unfortunately had no time until now. I have not checked all my facts yet but I am remembering that WCOM and AOL have a good relationship and I heard and read that AOL may want to join in together with a financial heavyweight. So, maybe AOL is still in. There was talk that AOL had backed out but then I hear that AOL is just not talking about this situation. Since AOL and WCOM have a friendly relationship, you never know what AOL will do. And even if they do nothing and WCOM gets to help Comcast, it may not be all bad for AOL. At least AOL is looking up today. Sonny
