Mike, Please don't use pool players to make points about Corporate America and Wall St. (bg) As a teen I hung out in some of the worst pool rooms in NY. Among the regulars were gangsters, hustlers, pimps, thieves, murderers, crooked cops, and assorted other colorful types. As a group I rate them much higher as human beings than many of the people that society values highly. I was also less worried about getting out of there with my money than I am when I listen to some of the touts on CNBC. At least you could explain the behavior in that poolroom and knew what you were up against going in. (ng) Wayne
