Scrapps, this thread got significantly more interesting, with introduction of Iraq dilemma. Although, it will be nice to bomb Saddam in reality a concern is not about Russia. With current tensions between Israel and Arabs, one would expect a significant anti-American sentiment in many Arab countries with potentially escalating of what is already a very volatile situation into outright crisis. (if Clinton does nothing-in that part of the World he is not to be taken seriously-like in many parts of this country) If Saddam would fire at Israel again, or some terrorist suicide bombing were coincidently to occur, you would have plenty of reasons to worry about COMS, other than Rokwell. IMO we are in a box-and world need conflict anyway to sustain the growth-that is geopolitical reality-and equivalent to drought/hurricanes in mother-nature world

I agree with you, cash is king for the time being. Also agree with regard to Iraq. Saddam just is not going to blow away. Do you think USRX would have fared better alone? I hear Pilot is an outstanding hit with close to a million units sold. How is the 2x vs Flex battle faring? FYI, I have been using cable modem since June and love it. Am hooked up around the clock. Never get a busy signal. But weak link seems to be the servers at the destinations, including at SI, that seem to get bogged down quite a bit. Tulvio
