reply from a friend to whom I sent your comment:

The following Wall Street Journal article

http://public.wsj.com/sn/y/SB984169185209717909.html

suggests the SEC would have a hard time making a case against Bezos

None of which should be read as my endorsing Amazon as a business model, and certainly not as an investment. While I'm at it, fetch me more pikes for the heads of Redhat and VA Linux and Loudcloud and Healtheon....
