>>Off-topic Have you heard any speculation about what's gonna happen with Robbie & Montgomery in this Nationsbanc/BofA merger?

I agree with TD. Robbie is a much more reputable organization than Montgomery, IMO. Thom Weisel is a big-time asshole. He is in charge of merging the two and he is going to be ruthless. He and Sandy Robertson hate each other and so this is Robbie's worst nightmare. In fact, I think most people in the business dislike Thom Weisel. He is the quintessential cocky-Gordon-Gekko-greedy-do-anything-it-takes Wall Streeter. They aren't all angels over at Robbie and not everyone at Montgomery is like or agrees with Weisel's ways (to be sure) but Montgomery in general is known as a bunch of money-grubbing slick-Willies. A friend of mine was going to work there but decided if there was ever a firm going to go down due to SEC violations, it would be Montgomery.
