Rosemary/OFF TOPIC - CPQ just bought the rights to the Rockets! Being an LA'er, we're on opposing sides of the bench. (I have, however, the honor of being kicked out of a hotel in Dallas circa 1967.)

Market timer, Peter, over and out.

<<BTW folks, for you all that don't live in the great State of Texas, Compaq just bought the rights to the
Summit where the also great Houston, back to back champion Rockets play. And the Champion Comets.
I think its called the Compaq Sports Center now for the next 6 years.>>

Compaq did buy the rights to the Summit, now Compaq Center, but the official computer company of the Rockets is still Hewlett Packard. The Rockets owner didn't seem happy with the renaming of the Summit given his deal with HP.

And, the rockets are FORMER back to back champions. The title of back to back champions is clearly held by the Bulls. The Rockets are just lucky Jordan retired for two years <g>.
