Harvey,

>>This is the delivery system that is being equated with the Railroads of the Sherman Anti-Trust days. How do you ship from NY to California without going thru Mr Vanderbilt?

You don't. That's irrelevant though, because we all know how Vanderbilt helped the consumers:

"His foible was opposition. Wherever his keen eye detected a line that was making a large profit...he swooped down and drove it to the wall, by offering better service and lower rates -- for a time. Then with the opposition driven out, he would raise his rates without pity, to the lasting misery of his clients."

Cheers,

Norm
