Is this part of the 14+ million shares bought by US Bancorp? From a 13D filing by Walter Scott today: <<The Investor is the beneficial owner of 17,686,247 shares of Common Stock. This amount represents 12% of the Issuer's issued and outstanding Common Stock. The Investor retains both voting and investment power over such shares of Common Stock. The Transaction was consummated on March 31, 1998.>> Has anyone seen number of old Class D shares held by Walter Scott prior to 1/1/98? If he bought those 14+ million shares in the open market at approx. $60/share that is a very powerful statement as to the future prospects of this company.

Ken: "ANY THOUGHTS ON INTERNATIONAL ACQUSITIONS?" No thoughts regarding specific names, BUT, "our" company is going to have some ammunition to spend with the issuance of those Senior Notes...don't think the money is pegged for TV ads...Really believe, our trusty lads HAVE A PLAN...that will be exciting to see unfold. (Think the Union Pacific deal had been in the works for more than just a few days ) Course, I'm one of those who bought on "faith" not book value - so, what do I know. Happy Holidays to all. Best, Don.
