Okay, we have vacationcompare.com, which is really just an advertising
stream. We have starlightvacations.com, which is a direct seller
(ie., in competition with travel agents), we have travelstar.com,
which I haven't figured out, and we have joystar.com, which seems to
be more interested in getting me to sign up new agents.
I haven't looked at an annual report, so I can't comment on the
relative income numbers. |
