Bruce... once again pathetic action on SPNSF.... best just tuck it away and not watch it.... the MMs drove poor R Allen nuts.... I really don't watch much anymore.... managment was less than candid last year about the timing on Transconnect revs, capital structure, and last years pathetic 3Q (IMO) using vacations as an excuse (especialy after hinting they would have a blowout 2nd half)... I've stuck with them because I believe they're on to something..... and if IBM lands a decent contract (lets say the USPS, FDX or UPS; obviously they wouldn't have written the system without a customer in mind, or having asked for it) SPNSF will be another NEON..... many holders are pissed.... so until IBM comes through MMs are just gonna keep stealing shares painting the tape any which way they can.....

Pick any old high school trig book and you'll find a more universally accepted accurate book....... there aren't 300 sects on the practice of trigonometry....... Despite Ben's opinion, Constantine was very motivated spiritually.... a devout christian as far as he understood it.... remember living prophets had disappeared centuries before Constatine.... when he held council in Constantinople is was to unify the empire using the disparate watered down creeds of christianity from all regions of the empire....... and man they were disparate (communication was by camel train, no printing press, no computer)... about every pagan act you can imagine was being practiced in the name of Christianity (same as today) no one agreed on anything... so "plain and precious" parts of the holy writ were were essentially voted on... some in some out.... the discovery of the deads sea scrolls was significant because these manuscripts predated those used by Constantine.... this is how modern day scholars know that Constantine adapted the holy writ to suit his needs........... this is why I get a chuckel out of the fundamentalists... most don't even know who Constantine was (or the relevance of the dead sea scrolls) or how what they consider "holy", was manipulated by political leadership to unite the roman empire.... amazing... seems most take their thinking caps off when it comes to that big black book (laborer and professional alike).... that's Ok though.... we all need solace in this world... there is far to little of it.... "in the world ye shall know tribulation... but be of good cheer for I (Christ) have overcome the world..." "my peace I give unto you, not as the world giveth give I unto you... let not your heart be troubled nor afraid" I like these words.... I'm reminded of them every time I see some MM painting the tape and snatching the shares of the unwary.... or shorting the behootspaa out of my favorite housing stock.... there's plenty of evil out there to go around.... it's a good thing we got at least a remnant of the truth left us by Constantine.... if not for him, all the writ may have been in the dead sea.... some better than none? probably.... of course GOD did have a backup plan.... a second testament to the life of the Savior... and I'm glad it found me... because Constantine's Bible was just too flawed for my taste...
