haha, you guys are hilarious. I wonder how many of you have a degree in any kind of science (no, political science doesnt count). Global Warming is no longer considered a 'debate' by anyone with half a brain and has been recognized by 99% of the world's top scientists/researchers... as fact. Our reaction to it, of course, is highly debatable but there remains no question that we are having a disproportionate and negative impact----btw, the whole "winters have been colder" argument just furthers the real tenant of global warming---it should be called "Global Climate Crisis" because while the core idea is that our globe is warming, that results in freezing temperatures for half the word as the polar caps melt and winds push those temperatures across our globe.

I love investing in BTU and coal and your analysis is great, but lets not start pretending that people at SeekingAlpha have any kind of science knowledge. If anyone wants to refute global warming with a PhD in a relevant field, I welcome it. ]]>

Uh.....you are saying that the markets go down over time? historically?

That is wrong. So, very, wrong.

I agree with your comments for the short term (8 months)....but I'm oh-so-confused by the above quote. ]]>

Yes, Google is far superior and if MSFT and YHOO stay seperate it will forever remain that way. We have no idea what could happen if they combine.

Ya ya ya, two wrongs don't make a right. True. But, power + power DOES equal more power.]]>

Blockbuster's Online Focus is Killing its Competitive Advantage http://seekingalpha.com/article/32374-blockbuster-s-online-focus-is-killing-its-competitive-advantage?source=feed#comment-84422 84422
Also, your suggestion about wireless in Blockbusters cracks me up. Do you really see Blockbuster being the place to hang out and check your e-mail?? Starbucks...okay. Airports....okay. But who is goign to bring their laptop into a blockbuster?? Or, furthermore, who carries their laptop around and finds themselves in a blockbuster?


If blockbuster can deliver their promised doubling of online customers by the end of the year we may see a difference in the Netflix dominated online retailers. I think Blockbuster is losing focus of what really seperates itself from Netflix——VIDEO GAMES. Obviously a smaller market, the Nintendo Wii focuses on small easy games that really lose their excitment after a week. Blockbuster could make a killing on the new systems if they offered games online, which Netflix does not and Blockbuster is slowly realizing they need to do.]]>

Is Apple Beginning Its Long Delayed Descent? http://seekingalpha.com/article/31772-is-apple-beginning-its-long-delayed-descent?source=feed#comment-83914 83914
I'm a a 1 year reader and will begin to write soon as I am one of the writesr for the Ivy League Investment Journal and in the Investment Club at my specific University. Hopefully, I'll write something with enough fact that we can critique the content and not the lack thereof (but I also welcome criticisms).]]>

I own Apple long that I bought at 52 last summer. I am considering selling because of the potential to decline but its not for the superficial reasons you listed here. Chances are it will hit 105 before 90 anyways.]]>
