*** OT *** I agree that there are some fields the government does relatively well in, including the delivery of most of the nation's mail at a fair price, even though some folks bitch & moan constantly about the USPS. We still have the best postal service in the industrialized world, which is amazing, considering the government is still behind the massive operation..... Yogi

So in other words you're a socialist.

I've forgotten, are you long or short MSFT? It would be interesting if you were long, because then we would know that MSFT has socialist supporters; something which has been argued about ad nauseum on this board.
