Alex, Thanks for the post. It is scary to think, but the "free cash" of the IMF and G-8 nations is running out. Clinton and Rubin are talking about having to bail out Mexico again. Funny how every time a bank fails or a country flounders, the US taxpayer gets hit. But ya know, the good old US of A owes almost 6 trillion dollars itself. I wonder how much "borrowing" this nation could actually stand... -John

Iraq Threatens 'Grave Consequences' BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Iraq warned of ''grave consequences'' if U.N. economic sanctions were not lifted immediately. The statement signed by President Saddam Hussein and other top leaders did not elaborate. Meanwhile, chief U.N. weapons inspector Richard Butler told the Security Council that U.S. findings of nerve agent on Iraqi missiles were ''utterly unambiguous.'' But the warheads will be re-analyzed in France and Switzerland to satisfy Iraqi charges that the findings are baseless. Arson Suspected in Some Fla. Fires DELAND, Fla. (AP) - Firefighters tried today to stop wildfires threatening homes in densely wooded areas. Investigators suspect arsonists set some of the blazes. A fire near the Daytona Park Estates subdivision in Volusia County was probably set intentionally, officials said. Even with the support of airplanes, helicopters, water tankers and bulldozers, firefighters were struggling to keep up with new blazes.
