Yes, all doctors are stupid and all anonymous morons named "Marty" are geniuses based on the 100-day chart of ETV. Give up now, Lehman, Marty-of-the-Street has called your bluff! Forget your Mark Cuban investors, forget your Lauren Hutton contracts, forget your record member retentions! It's all crap and the M-man was on you like flies on s--- from day one! Give up now! Indeed, the stock I mentioned to which I held (and added more during a Street-perceived period of weakness) has split and gone higher. I still have not held it for a year and will probably not sell for awhile, either. Thanks for the reminder. Dead money and contrarian investing are concepts that are different for people with different time horizons. That's why there are markets. I am sure that in your tax bracket it doesn't matter whether you hold onto a stock for 15 minutes or 15 years. Your mental and maturity brackets are overtariffed, unfortunately, but you will never be taxed with that knowledge. The real proof in the pudding will be whether this company makes money; then Wall Street, with its too late, overreacting, mentally underendowed Martys will follow. Then, they can find themselves reading the Motley Fools' "how could I have found this double?" column. I am amused at your obsession with physicians, your tenacity for vendettas, and your consistent lack of understanding of business plans. The people who run this company have been running it for half a year or so, not much longer. Your patience ran out after several weeks & I am sure that Lehman misses you. Your timing is superb and demonstrates your reasoning ability and sense of the market. I presume you will be posting to the Amazon, Yahoo, GNET, RNWK and other boards since in the last several months they have lost half of their peak value. There may be doctors invested in those companies, too, and you will need to put them in their place. LOL Some turnarounds take time. Some will never occur. Some things stay the same. I have confidence that ETV will stay on course with their business plan and the money will follow. Wall Street will stay the same, too. Too late, overreacting, emotional blather. Buy now. Sell now. Go chase the momentum and buy & sell & pay higher taxes. While you are pulling things, why not pull some old IBM charts over a similar time period in different years and see what you get? Why not do the same for Lucent? I am glad that you have indirectly called the end of the expansion of the internet and the declaration of success for its businesses. <<"It is clear (or should be) that everyone else who assesses Internet retailers and their business plans considers this stock a non-starter.">> Many of us were waiting to get the word from on high when it was over. I suppose ETV has been pulled from the Street.com's Internet e-commerce index because of your astute call... Yes, Marty, you are smarter than doctors, your investment penis is longer and its girth impressive. Flex. Exhale. Flex. I am so impressed with your wisdom. Here are some more examples of your wisdom that make the ETV chart look good.: techstocks.com techstocks.com You be da' man, Marty. Best of luck in the witless protection program. Member 3963281
