<Remember Desert Storm>

Dan, thanks, this makes it really simple. We keep track of one Wolf Blitzer. You may recall him from Desert Storm, he was the [expletive deleted] that was "reporting" for NBC from under his hotel desk at the Baghdad Arms in the middle of an air strike. ( I kid you not, I saw with it my own eyeballs, it's on my top ten list of Most Astounding Media Moments.)

Also on the list was the reporter that asked General Schwartzkopf (sp?) in a live news conference from Saudi Arabia, "What are your specific plans for troop deployment, General?" (He handled it pretty well.)

Anyway; when Wolf leaves for Baghdad, we sell. When we see him on TV live from Baghdad, we buy.
