Slider, Thanks for the input. Attempted to call GIFI IR man yesterday, but kept getting a busy signal. I expected crude to trend up today, but I am not surprised given Saddam's lack of retaliation,so far. If he is the maniac painted out to be and if in fact possesses the massive arsenal he is accused of having then it is only a question of time. The man is obviously evil, but I don't think he is either stupid or a coward. His restraint may be a clever strategy to demonstrate to the world that he is the moderate and the White House Infidels are the terrible aggressors. This might not play well on the world stage, but it will certainly play well in his neighborhood and especially on the eve of Ramadan. Having spent time in that part of the world, I can tell you with certainty those people don't think the way we do. Having said that, it doesn't mean we are always in the right. Thanks again, and good luck. K

Ok here is a question. My daughter is 6 months old and in about 10 days I will have 6 thousand dollars to invest for her college. What makes the most sense??? Invest it all in a top notch OSX company for the next 17 years?? Divide it in half and invest half in UTI and half in HLX for the next 15 years or until they both eclipse their old highs. Invest it in two other companies that may be better for the lonnnng term?? divide it 6 ways and pick the top 6 for long term returns?? What would they be?? Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to invest it for the most gains over the next 15 years??
