Hey, REB, you're off-topic. Just because Geraldo talks about it for an hour and we get continual reports about it on CNBC, that doesn't give us the right to discuss it on this thread. Besides, if you disagree with the coverage and fawning, you must be an insensitive lout. You should be ashamed! Learn to think and speak like you're told. To continue with my off-topic remarks (I've learned from Ian that anything I say is off topic because I'm the one who says it), I heard an LA news channel (satellite, CBSWest) explain why the money was spent for the body recovery and why he gets a Naval Burial at Sea. It was because of his "great and significant contributions to the nation." The contribution he gave us, according to this "special investigative report" was the salute as a 3-year-old when JFK's casket wheeled by. Just imagine how acrimonious things would get if we were to start complaining about tax cuts or Greenspan's testimony. Or something REALLY controversial like how Joe combs his hair. <vbg> Your comments are right on, REB. Good find. jim
