It was the DOJ and 19 other states after pre-suit negotiations. Many of those states have Republican governors and Republican attorneys general. The trial lawyers have nothing to do with bringing this suit And none of these people, on whichever side you wish to make your target, are now and never have been members of the Trial Lawyers' Association in their states? It didn't start this way (or maybe it did), but it has now become a full-lawyer employment act, wrought by a Clinton DoJ. The fees dished up from the public trough alone will be enough to fund one HELL of a lot of innovation if it had remained in private hands. Instead it'll be going to lawyers' sailboats and boob jobs for their wives and/or girlfriends. buck

OT Even you know that w/o the weight of the so-called Justice Department that this suit would not have proceeded as it has. >>The trial lawyers have nothing to do with bringing this suit. The trial lawyers are the biggest contributors to the Democrat party and we all know that the Clinton administration works for such money. Their actions have nothing to do with helping the consumer. Remember, the Clinton administration has allowed the oil industry to recombine - Exxon and Mobil, BP and Amoco and almost ARCO - all against consumer interests.
