I dunno, it actually seems to state otherwise: ' Investors can enjoy the benefit of any excess net capital loss being carried over to subsequent years, to be deducted from capital gains and against up to $3,000 of other kinds of income. ' 
  
 It sounds like it carries over against capital gains if you win big. You just can't use it to not pay taxes on ordinary income.

You're right, other dude is wrong. The 3k limit applies to ordinary income. You can always deduct captial loss up to your gains, no limit.  The 3k is for loss in excess of gains.
