They can scrutinise away all they want - but, it's pretty much a done deal. It
won't be disassembled because too many stockholder and campaign contributor

Benadryl or Dramamine? I always thought that Benadryl was an antihistamine for
itches and allergies. Or is it that you are allergic to small aeroplanes?

I don't mind fishing if the mosquitoes aren't too fierce. But, my most
effective, productive fishing is done by trolling the cases, displays and
gondolas at Robert's Seafood Market.
