I've thought it odd that gas prices in CA have for once been lower than someplace else. For years (it seems), gas prices in CA have always subsidized prices for the rest of the nation. But in the Bay Area, prices right now are lingering around $1.85 to $1.95 for regular unleaded. Could it be that gas prices are not homogeneous enough for there to be common outrage at high prices? Kevin, I like the "e-software" thing. Sounds huge, and definitely applicable to general engineering. I can think of several applications for it immediately. Here's a tidbit from a press release from InformationWeek: [the company] says the 232,000-seat contract is the largest in the company's four-year history; president and CEO Jeffrey Beir says [the company] won the deal from a field of some 20 vendors and denies rumors the company provided its software to Ford free-of-charge. Was that you? hehe... Cheers, KT
