Actually I think Rudy's rejection turned it into advertising - both for Rudy and for the prince's POV. If Rudy hadn't rejected it neither you nor I would have talked or even known about it. The prince even got an interview with Larry King.

<As the Saudi prince was tying his $10 million to a press release, the money wasn't really a gift; it was advertising. If he wanted to buy advertising for his cause, let him do it through the usual channels. > That's not my understanding at all.... you think he would have taken the coin back if they didn't let him on TV??? LOL!! As you said, he can buy all the time he wants! DUH! It's just my opinion that you don't cut off dialogue [or what the hell, the $10 mill] at the knees... No one want's to hear what he has to say is the real issue. Fine, shoot the mail man. DAK
