ML ON BBC::::Merrill's US customers put a record $36bn of new money into their brokerage accounts in the fourth quarter, bringing the firm's total client assets to $1.7 trillion. Significantly, the new money beat the $33bn of new money Charles Schwab attracted in the quarter. "This is something (Merrill) hasn't done in aeons," said analyst Steve Galbraith of the Sanford Bernstein investment bank. Merrill's Wall Street rivals, such as Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co. and PaineWebber have also reported record results for the year as the popularity of share trading has grown.

Lee, funny, you just reminded me that the only syrup we had was our own homemade syrup with sugar and maple flavoring!. I also remember those red spinning stools in the drug stores where we ate banana splits and had real chocolate malts with the stainless steel container with the extra malt that wouldn't fit in the malt glass. Was only a kid....:) and I loved cherry cokes..and 29 cent hamburgers..and 10 cent movie theatres where you could stay all afternoon and watch several movies...and catch polywogs in the riverbed, take them home and watch them grow legs and turn into frogs..loved it when we got a bullfrog..am I flipping out?
