Regardless of what happens in the near term, I will stay with MO.

A nice "war story" from recent years : In April 1994, a magazine cover story (was it "Time" magazine?) featured a smoker with 14 guns pointed at his head, with a title that went something like, "Is It All Over For Tobacco?".

Within a year, MO had gone up 65%, and by 1997, had TRIPLED!!

I am almost wishing for some cover story like that right now. My vote for who should do it goes to "Business Week" (because they tend to "succeed" against all odds -- they are the ones who manage to screw it up most among a crowd that almost always gets it wrong).

Dipy.
