My year end is in for $75. Add 42.49 for low & 79 for high. Keep up the good discussions. Been lurking at least 8 years here & Gorilla and really like to hear from the old timers!

<This having to swear to be cool is a young guy thing imo although I've certainly met at least one woman that thought it was normal.> I think swearing has passed through being 'cool and daring' to being 'in with the cool', to now being normal. People want to be seen to be normal, which is, of course, the opposite of cool. So I expect public swearing to become uncool again, probably with the next generation rejecting their crusty old loser parents [as always happens]. You'll be in tune with your great grand children if not your grand children. Howard Stern implied that in his Larry King interview with a comment that they don't necessarily swear and made some comment how it's fun to break the rules, even if the rules are to swear. Or some such comment. He didn't swear once on Larry King, showing just how truly cool he is. He didn't want pathetic bleeps. Common losers feel the need to swear all the time, especially in full public display. Howard is totally the man! Completely cool. How swanky is that? Not a single swear word or the like. Maybe I missed it as I didn't watch it all. However, I'm not so Victorian/Virtuous that I think porn should be banned. I'm Libertarian Virtuous. I am hoping that CDMA providers offer loads of top quality porn to drive sales of high resolution cyberphones. MediaFLO could fill a whole channel with drool stuff. Our son was working in Japan on Livedoor's search engine and he said that [if I remember rightly] that 60%, or maybe it was 80%, of searches are for porn or related subjects. That's a problem for cyberspace companies who want the eyeballs and revenue but want to be Disney-like. Mqurice
