Joan, Why doesn't Alan call Boeing and let them know that inflation as reported is overstated, not understated as they believe. <G> Yes, this economic miracle is all blue smoke and Miracle Whip. There ain't no there, there. The economy sucks and this is one of the crappiest recoveries in history. But the stock market doesn't exactly reflect that reality. <G> Maybe I missed something at business school. I had probably been the victim of a vicious pile-driver in a wrestling match the night before when they taught the lesson that, when in tough competition for orders, raising prices is the right strategy. Say, what?!!!!! That works about as well as "I'm not going to take a bath until I finally get a date." Strange things are happening. MB
