KT - My profound cynicism about the test-taking process stood me well, then. The answers I sought to give AIMR's graders were those for which they were looking. Hence, I have a gigantic, official-looking certificate that makes my girlfriend jealous -- her much harder-won doctorate from Berkeley is a small, subtle piece, which I much prefer esthetically, but which she finds unsatisfying. And women say that size doesn't matter.. -g- -mb

To All, The ad for CNBS in the Wall Street Journal. There is a photo ad in the Journal for BubbleVision, and it pictures David Faber, Mark Haines, Maria and Joe Kernan. I look at it and wonder: if they took more than one photo, how did they pick this one? Mark, who I happen to like most of the time, looks like he is totally confused by something. Faver looks like he just passed gas, and Maria is undressing me with her eyes. Actually, she is posed with her hands hidden as though she was shoplifting, otherwise known as Winona Syndrome. Ditto for Kernan. Now, it does beat the Smith Barney Asset Management undertaker pictures, but it is still a bizarre picture. Next time, perhaps they can pose them as they pretend to work. <g>
