T, Most of the Rockettes stay at my place and I fly them Southwest for performances. <g>

What's funny is, using inside information and losing money is also illegal. I've never seen anyone prosecuted, but the way the law is written, you can't use it at all.

I still remember when I worked for a co. that had inside info on an E&P venture. One of the oil PMs said, "Too bad we can't buy the stock because of inside info. We'd all get rich." A year later the E&P co went belly up. <g> There is inside information and those who THINK they have inside information.

Re: "...that amount of money will hardly get you an airmattress on the kitchen floor in Manhattan." - That's "for their 15-week work schedule", so it's most likely not their only income.

I am steadfastly opposed to the union on principle based soleley on this single quote from union delegate Debby Murphy, "We're about synchronization, keeping our legs together." NOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo!!! Anything but that. <g>
