I am not worried about our sector at all-but then again when do I worry? I think we've gotten our punishment already. I just think some other sectors may now get theirs. S&Ps down about 10 points(80 Dow points)

The Pentagon said today that the attack is at least two weeks away. The U.S. is also going to issue Saddam an ultimatum before initiating an attack. I think the government gives him an ultimatum first so that he has a chance to hide himself and some of the more valuable weapons. That's how our government operates- ass backwards. Actually, Saddam will have about 2.5 weeks to prepare. The U.S. likes to telegraph its intentions well in advance.
