<<Based on LOR's recent price performance, it appears that the street may be worried.>> Ramsey: Do you think that this is the primary cause of the weakness in Lor and G*; more than the recent Iridium news, general market FUD, and the usual, but heightened, pre-launch jitters? I'm not disagreeing but have not factored in the political side as a large component of the recent weakness. Regards. ...Tim

Ramsey; What stock exchange are you referring to, when you say that "based on LOR's recent stock performance, the street is worried"? I don't see anything the least bit worrisome in the wiggly line on the LOR chart. Politics, Washington-style, is another branch of show business. The Democrats and Republicans are performing their usual election year Kabuki theater. There is little to worry about, as long as they are spending all of their time investigating each other. Frank

I disagree. Anything involving "slick Willy" will come out okay (ha, ha). The fact that LOR had received Clinton's approval before releasing the info to the Chinese shows good faith on their part. Clinton's should be on his own regarding this matter. What can they do now that it's been done? Nothing in the short term and probably nothing in the long term with exception to a change in approval procedures when sensitive info is subject to being released. IMHO skibob
