MAGNETO AND TITANIUM MAN By Paul McCartney WELL, I WAS TALKING LAST NIGHT, MAGNETO AND TITANIUM MAN. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT YOU, BABE, THEY SAID: YOU WAS INVOLVED IN A ROBBERY THAT WAS DUE TO HAPPEN AT A QUARTER TO THREE IN THE MAIN STREET. I DIDN'T BELIEVE THEM, (I didn't believe them) MAGNETO AND TITANIUM MAN. BUT WHEN THE CRIMSON DYNAMO FINALLY ASSURED ME, WELL, I KNEW. YOU WAS INVOLVED IN A ROBBERY THAT WAS DUE TO HAPPEN AT A QUARTER TO THREE IN THE MAIN STREET. SO WE WENT OUT, MAGNETO AND TITANIUM MAN. AND THE CRIMSON DYNAMO CAME ALONG FOR THE RIDE. WE WENT TO TOWN WITH THE LIBRARY, AND WE SWUNG ALL OVER THAT LONG, TALL BANK IN THE MAIN STREET. WELL, THERE SHE WERE AND TO MY DESPAIR, SHE'S A FIVE STAR CRIMINAL, BREAKING THE CODE. DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO. MAGNETO SAID, NOW THE TIME HAS COME TO GATHER OUR FORCES AND RUN. OH NO, THIS CAN'T BE SO. THEN IT OCCURRED TO ME, YOU COULDN'T BE BAD, MAGNETO WAS MAD, TITANIUM TOO. AND THE CRIMSON DYNAMO, JUST COULDN'T CUT IT NO MORE, YOU WERE THE LAW. OW! WE WENT TO TOWN WITH THE LIBRARY, AND WE SWUNG ALL OVER THAT LONG, TALL BANK IN THE MAIN STREET. YOU KNOW THE ONE I MEAN. WELL, THERE SHE WERE AND TO MY DESPAIR, SHE'S A FIVE STAR CRIMINAL, BREAKING THE CODE. DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO, DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO. MAGNETO SAID, NOW THE TIME HAS COME TO GATHER OUR FORCES AND RUN. OH NO, (oh no) THIS CAN'T BE SO. THEN IT OCCURRED TO ME, YOU COULDN'T BE BAD, MAGNETO WAS MAD, TITANIUM TOO. AND THE CRIMSON DYNAMO, WELL, THEY JUST COULDN'T CUT IT NO MORE, YOU WERE THE LAW. à MPL Communications Ltd.

Seems like there may be a hint in there about what Boeing thinks demand will be?

hb, Boeing was playing "big company futures contracts." Basically, the big co. agrees to buy commodities are a certain price over a certain period of time. If the price goes up, they force the little co. to deliver in good faith. If it goes down, they say "tough hockey puck," and leave the little guy holding the bag. The little guy is forced with eating the losses or losing the future business of a major, in fact, THE major customer. I think TIE has a lot of guts to sue them.
