Earlie- I had a question the other day that I thought you might be able to assist with. With the rise in petrol costs, won't the big 3 auto makers get hammered on their gas hog SUV's and pick-ups?

Those are their high margin breadmakers. I'm not sure they would make dollar one if all they sold were passenger cars. Do you know what the effect, of say a 25% drop in SUV and pick-up sales would be on them?

Just a meandering bear thought, <g>

Earlie, Of course, it isn't lying if there is any truth within the subset of possibilities, ala Bill Clinton. <g> I can't believe the market is bidding CPQ up. What a bunch of maroons.
