<<"Earl Mason said an industry price war" is good enough for me, even though it wasn't surrounded with quotation marks. You are grasping at straws. Really doesn't matter who said it anyway, what matters is does a price war exist. According to this article/interview one does.>> Stephen, good enough for you? You're kidding me. It's not good enough for me. Don't you see articles where the wording is inaccurate and/or twisted like every day? Ever heard of "spin?" I wouldn't even believe the author spoke to Mason unless I heard it myself. Why would Mason tell some "reporter" there was a price war over the phone when he told the ML conference that competition was a little tougher than he thought? Maybe this guy's his best buddy or something? Furthermore, even if Mason did use the term as you're "assuming" he did, the sentence also says there's been a price war going on all along, that it had only expanded to the corporate market. It's clear to me Mason didn't use the term. Robbie
