Sit back and watch it unfold. I maintain that a couple of rules might be swiftly enacted: no companies that pay more than 10k taxes/yr, and definitely no automobile companies or their subsidiaries. Is this too much to ask? I hope not. But asking for rules... coming from the Breaker of Rules & Regs?

Glad to see things haven't changed with you. :) I can't believe I missed out on the SSWC and it was practically in my backyard (about 1 hour away). Sounds like a fantastic time!
