Dear Dwainster: Thats OK, I have a thick skin. (gg). I dont blame you for getting off the MSFT thread but maybe it was really because its so DISMAL lately. (gg) As to political BS I know you are at least partially correct, however, in the USA at least, its my humble opinion that Politics IS IMPORTANT to investors. I have been slammed on WCOM and I believe part of it is due to the over regulation promulgated by this Administration. I truly believe a Gore administration would be EVEN WORSE. We here at AOL have a merger in process too, think what it is costing in time and money just to jump through the hoops of these regulators and think what the effect will be long term if its denied. Finally, think about all the regulated industries around you, do you feel that they are operated effeciently and you are getting a fair shake on prices due to regulation. IMHO over regulation promulgates the STATUS QUO and ELIMINATES INNOVATION. Think about it. JDN
