You know Pap King, this selloff on PAA has been pretty severe and I am wonder if it might not be a bit overdone. My reasons:

(1) We haven't heard anything yet as to whether the unauthorized trading losses might be covered to some extent by fidelity insurance policies;

(2) The general partner is willing to toss in another $60+ million in additional capital if the lenders cut PAA a little slack;

(3) PAA was attempting to sell the Cal-Tex pipeline even before this story broke. If a sale can be consummated on decent terms, that should provide more cash; and

(4) You have to think that dividend (even if it has to be cut back for a time) will attract value/turnaround players.

This is an intriguing play. If I hadn't recently had my ass handed to me on MDR (I'm in at a blended 11 3/8) I might just try to make a go for it. Heh heh
