I know most here will join me in crossing our fingers, lags, eyes, and anything else we can find in hopes that Ned will be correct. Bob pushed people off a cliff. Now they're reduced to praying. All for some subscriptions and an ego the size of Florida.

PETE, Is there a FASB change in process affecting M&A's? I heard a business analyst on the radio last night talking about a potential "rally" in the Merger & Acquisition area. He talked about a FASB change coming 1 July 2001 which will encourage M&A activity. He felt that between that pending accounting change, and the depressed stock prices of a number of Tech stocks, the stage is set for-a-flurry of M&A activity. What say you? Does any of that make sense? Thanks, Wally M.
