Merritt, The problem with commodity traders is that they tend to extrapolate the past without looking into potential differences in the future. Which is why they all use TA. <G>

I don't get the cessation bit at all. Saddam goes on tv telling his people he won and we stop bombing? It doesn't seem to me that any lesson has been learned, at least not overtly. Part of that has to do with the fact that we are trying to bomb people without offending them, which offends me. But, I think on the timing, that Clinton would have been sly enough to continue if it was a ploy on the impeachement. I would have used Saddam's statements and my continued bombing to "prove" that the hearings hadn't made me wag the dog in the first place.
