>>I will be in the islands :-)

Let me know where you settle; I may be in the market for the lot next door to yours. Right now I am favoring Maui <g>.

imo, for investing decisions, market cap means nada.

Jesus christ, I know sevearl guys who are mid-7 to low 8 digit investors who are still active on this board. They have no intetion to be on islands.

Anyway, I will have to repeat that your script basically has no chance of working out. AOL has a greater chance of first becoming a 0.5 bagger (90 bucks) than a 2 bagger. We can have a little bet: if you win in 3-5 year...I will pay you half a million in cash; and if, unfortunately, god forbid, I win, you only need to pay me a little 200 K in whatever way you want to pay. Deal? You can a nice 2.5:1 odds.:)

You see, I just have this little nice habit of gambling. And I am so stupid that I always let the other party have better odds.:)

good luck,
