John,

I also agree that the gov'ts desire to respond to a few "legitimate points" should not be taken as a sign of weakness, etc. I am long MS but (as an experienced trial attorney) have to acknowledge that, rightfully or wrongfully, the gov't trial team "smoked" the MS lawyers at trial.

IMHO, Judge Jackson's basic findings etc., will most likely to be upheld on appeal and the case, ultimately, disposed of through negotiated changes in MS operations. What Jackson does in this remedy portion of the proceeding will establish the upper parameter of what the DOJ's position will be in settlement negotiations. They will likely settle for significantly less after the elections and initial appellate review is completed.
