    Trading the Large account

    I agree 400k is a nice chunk but I would need to see more commas before I gave it the designation of "larger." IMO, what works at under 100K should work better at 400K. DS

    What price religion?

    Interesting to read what Jefferson had to say about these rights. "The principles on which we engaged, of which the charter of our independence is the record, were sanctioned by the laws of our being, and we but obeyed them in pursuing undeviatingly the course they called for.

    This is too funny!

    No matter what Gore says, I find the debate on global warming to be interesting. I read some years ago that the models used to predict global climate changes could not be run backwards, making them highly suspect. It seems most of the attention is in reducing CO2 emmissions. Whether that...

    Bush Blows It Big Time
