Tulvio,

I think your analysis on the short-term market reaction to an increase in the oil for food deal is correct. I'm not so sure I agree with your analysis of the long-term effect. I posted the news for a couple of reasons and one was disgust. This is not to say I want to starve women and children - it is that we had a short run based mostly on dropping crude prices and I began to feel some earth under my feet. I was even considering jumping in and adding a couple hundred more RIG on Monday morning because of the three-point hit they took on Friday. Now, I am just going to stand on the side and see what happens Monday morning. I don't know why I should be so concerned because I am long term with no margin. I should stop watching the day to day activities much the way Glen should stop watching the spot crude prices. That guy is going to have a heart attack.
