Cool Cory, no big deal about the Bork rally, I usually let "the market says" things after a one day jump go after the next day's reversal. Thought you might like the idea of Bill getting outbid on the old codger though. Bork ain't my kind of guy, I guarantee you. And I got nothing against Microsoft investors enjoying their profits. I was supposed to by some stock last Sept I think, but I got caught up in the entertainment thing. As for Ken Starr and antitrust, I already tied those together with one of Bill's second-stringer Senate friends, Lauch Faircloth. And remember, Joel Klein got Vince Foster's job. More seriously, I'd say Starr is pretty far out of the envelope, compared to previous special prosecuters, who dealt with pretty serious official matters done while the presidents were in office. Whatever the deal was on Whitewater, it was invisible in the context of the (trillion dollar?) savings and loan bailout cesspool, and nobody cares about Bill Clinton's bimbo problems anymore. They believe the worst about him, and say so what. I'd be like that with my governor, too, if he weren't one of these family values preacher types. At this point, the Microsoft antitrust action is pretty much within historical norms, near as I can see. It's got a long way to go before it looks like the IBM thing. It's just a big story because that's the way attorney Gates has chosen to represent himself. His choice, but you know what that says about his client. "We must be free to imitate". Cheers, Dan.
