RE: OT and Janet Reno...

I watched Janet "Killer" Reno on TV, talking in her flat monotone. She's about a foot taller than Joel Klein. They look like Mutt and Jeff, but sadly they are real world people in positions of power.

I just wanted to add a humane comment about Janet Reno. I'm sure that most know she has a very advanced case of Parkinson's disease. Typical side effects of that disease include speech being monotone, flat facial expression along with the more famililar shakes in the hand that come with that ailment. Not trying to throw any water on how we investors may feel about the actions of people in power in regards to Microsoft. However, I just wanted to point out why she often appears as she does.

though the 2 company deal will likely hold.

From what I just read it seems that...
1. S.C. will be reluctant to grant a fast track appeal
and
2. Softie has a good chance for a reversal on appeal in the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for D.C.

Should be interesting.
