LOL!!! My thoughts exactly....

A good example of the differences between carbon and aluminum is in my post in the technical forum:

I used to shoot 2315's out of an old PSE dual cam. Now that I bought my new bow, I switched to carbons. The difference between the two bows and their arrow weights, trajectories, K/E, etc... is incredible.

Aluminum: Been around forever. Strong and very straight. But can get bent easily, depending on spine. Not as fast as carbon.
Carbon: Newer technology. Strong, not as straight as aluminum. Does not bend. It's either straight or it's broken. Faster than aluminum.
A/C/C: Best of both worlds. One of these days I have to try an A/C/C 3-60 out of my bow, or steal one of mobowhuntr's!
