BTW, Elmer, following up on yesterday's conversation, shareholders of both CPQ and HWP do indeed need to vote on the merger. And based on conversations with the few institutions that aren't selling stock like mad, that approval is far from certain.

Elmer is right. I was thinking of "hubris" as "humility," sort of. << Not that he was shy about expressing his views, or taking a stand, but modest in the ways I associate with classical definitions of hubris. My dictionary defines hubris as "overbearing pride; arrogance" "Modest" seems out of place with that definition. Reminds me of Jerry. >> Yes, I was speaking of the _opposite_ of hubris. I think this has thrown me before, like a word consistently misspelled. Must've been why I got a "B" in the English class where hubris and Greek tragedies were covered. --Tim May
