Gary, was that you in there selling those shares of PTEN, today?

Did you flip, or are you still on for the ride?

Gary (OT), My guess is that oil/fuels are already flowing into Yugoslavia via sympathetic neighbors Romania and Bulgaria. There's a dollar to be made.

There's a great article in today's Dallas Morning News one section entitled "There are No Angels Over There" a quotation by an Army General. I was unaware that the KLA Group was doing exactly the same things to the Serb minority before the NATO bombing began that Slob' is now doing to the Albanians.

Per the article, that includes terrorizing the Serb Minority in Kosovo, burning Serb Villages in Kosovo, planting car bombs in Serb civilian areas, and summarily executing so called "informants"- including a letter carrier and a young school teacher the week before the NATO bombing began.

Also the KLA has strong ties to Ben Laden and the Taliban in Afghanistan - One Air Force General was quoted as saying "Both the KLA and Slob' are thugs- It's just a tossup who is more thuggish." As if Slob' needed an excuse to go into Kosovo.

Also the KLA advocates a "Greater Albania" where all Albanians live in one country. The problem is that some of those Albanians now live in Macedonia, Montenegro, and northern Greece. So if the KLA comes out on top as the Representatives of the Kosovars, expect this same cycle of violence and unrest to repeat itself in some of these adjoining regions....

Well at least Congress goes back into Session on Monday and perhaps our Leaders can now have a rational discussion about what would be a proper policy...
