larry,

I plan to be just a reader for more education on this thread for the entire weekend, but I couldn't resist. Take a look at this famous guy on the SI for a steal of the century.

Message 8662069

I constantly hear people say 95% of option ended up worth nothing. The percentage doesn't apply to me yet, knock on wood, but I start telling people that number. And I believe it will soon apply to me one day.

Good luck in trading and keep posting.

Although Dr. Ahhaha says not to buy back what you have sold, I am placing a buy for $86. This will be the first time I have gone against his advice

This Portland news is equivalent to a partnership in progress
between T/ISP.

This makes Bell/TL's 'uniqueness in broadband delivery', 'pioneer in broadband as AOL in dial-up' in their 5/27/99 merge speech meaningless.

Further more, once ISP starts offer cable access, they'll get much faster growth rate of member signing-up than ATHM because
they know how to market their local audience.

As I see it, the only advantage that ATHM once held is now
not there anymore perception wise, the mo is not there anymore.

ATHM after split will trade like PRGY, just another ISP until
big news appears on the horizon, such as ATHM merges with some
second tier dial-up ISP...to become a full gear ISP, such as T
spins its networld isp to ATHM (I doubt it now because T is shrewd
and they know the plan is changed)

I remembered a week ago on this board I was concerned about what advantage ATHM would get if T/AOL engages in a partnership in the future, that concern seems more realistic today.

Please read WWW.STREETADVISOR.COM, Mr. Kevin Prigel's analyses regarding ATHM/XCIT dated 6/1/99, I read on 6/2/99 and sold all
ATHM on 6/2/99 at the opening. Luck? Maybe, this is one time
in my life that I followed someone's 'virtue advice' from the web
and benefit big time, hope you all have the same luck as I did this
time around, next time around? Who knows?
