I just got off the phone with my broker. He wanted me to fax something to him which didn't go through. I'm tired of these old ways. Don't these Wall Street guys know about the internet yet? Why can't they receive e-mail. It's hard to find a fax machine around here and then they don't seem to be maintained. Then he suggests Fed-Ex. Nothing but paper again. The nearest Fed Ex office is 2 miles away. There might be a mailbox around but I'd have to go driving to find it. I threatened to put everything in an on-line account if they can't step up to more modern technology. TP

mike, I'm glad Greenspan finally did his job. Don't break your hand patting the old geezer's back. He's one of the people most responsible for one of the worst bear markets ever, and economic contraction of a large magnitude despite a major increase in productivity by US laborers. His interest rates along with clinton's tax increases have brought a gravy train to a near halt. Granted there was a helluva lot of speculation in companies with no earnings and no plan, but people who gambled on those ended up like most gamblers do, broke.knc

Congrats on the call micheal. I half expected something on Friday... but never in my wildest dreams would Ihave expected 50 basis points prior to the employment data. The fed is clearly concerned. If the employment data is poor (signficant increase in new claims) we may see another cut soon. OG
