What growth is all about:

Its not growth, its cost rationalization. Lucent has been a mid single digit revenue grower for a while. In technology, that's nothing (Apple grew 66% organically last year).

European questions
"In 'The Force of Reason,' the controversial Italian journalist and novelist Oriana Fallaci illuminates one of the central enigmas of our time. How did Europe become home to an estimated 20 million Muslims in a mere three decades?
"How did Islam go from being a virtual non-factor to a religion that threatens the pre-eminence of Christianity on the Continent? How could the most popular name for a baby boy in Brussels possibly be Mohammed? Can it really be true that Muslims plan to build a mosque in London that will hold 40,000 people? That Dutch cities like Amsterdam and Rotterdam are close to having Muslim majorities?
"How was Europe, which was saved by the U.S. in World Wars I and II, and whose Muslim Bosnians were rescued by the U.S. as recently as 1999, transformed into a place in which, as Fallaci puts it, 'if I hate Americans, I go to Heaven, and if I hate Muslims, I go to Hell?'?"
-- Brendan Bernhard, writing on "The Fallaci Code," in L.A. Weekly March 15
