AW, Speaking of MSFDC; FDC is loosing money on this venture and continuing to pour dollars into it. The reason that they continue I believe is a fear of quick erosion of their main business. I believe 70 percent of their revenue comes from processing paper credit card transactions. With deals like today of VISA/CKFR teaming; the paper transactions may start to decline precipitously.

>>>Well I was wondering what kind of bait to use to catch tuna? You need a boat, 2 Cases..<a Case of Dynamite, and a Case of Beer>..and a pack of matches. First consume the case of Beer....don't stand up in the boat with all those empties on the floor with your pants down..{that's the leading cause of boater accidents in Ontario}...so I've been told. After complete consumption...begin lighting sticks of dynamite and toss them over your left shoulder...note watch where you are going, not where you've been....this method of Tuna fishing requires no fish cleaning afterwards. Great for people on the go...
