M.J.D. welcome to the Level 3 thread. You mentioned you've worked 20 years at Kiewit, what was your title when you left? Jim

M.J.D.: I also would like to welcome you to this board. I too am a 20 + person with Kiewit. 28 Years in the Phx District. This is a nice way to watch the fruits of our investment labor. Hank

Welcome. As one knowledgeable about Kiewit your insights are much appreciated. <Regarding your question on why L3 jettisoned CalEnergy, I think it was strictly because Crowe wants to focus on telecommunications. My reason for saying this is because Walter Scott (Kiewit Chairman) bought up 2 million shares of CE in the public offering CalEnergy used to raise the money to buy L3 out. Incidentally, those shares and another 16 million were sold in the high $30 range just before CE got hit by the Asian crisis reaction. I doubled up my holdings in CE at $25 last week - Walter is usually never wrong :-)> Well, did HE rebuy at 25? This stock reminds me of QCOM in the early days. Vast price swings. Momentum players. A wild ride.
