Dior,
My simple reply: I'm an idiot!
I was responding to the H-D comparo in general and was noting that we were comparing the wrong H-D take over. My "Attorney" reference was meant as a joke; but, I left out the smilies...I am the "Village Idiot" on this one.
Also, the "just call'em idiots" was a response in general to all statements about CSX's becoming FFR's: The only thing in this deal that would make sense is to make SAI more effecient (Mfg, Mngmt and Admin.) and improve the existing marketing model. I thought a lot of folks were off their rockers, kidding or not, to miss that one. I failed to clarify to whom I was responding...again, the village idiot thing.
As for Curt Scott: You need to see the other post from last nite, that I also shouldn't have made-tired mind and late nite stupidity, where I came down on Evan like a complete A$$.
Evan and Dior, I'm usually an A$$ of a different sort. I appologize for my lapse af clarity, smarts and manners. I normally have my tongue firmly planted in my cheek...Guess it was my turn to be in the barrel.
Again, I appologize and I'll just go to bed next time (Just got home from 2-days of moto-exhausted-at the time) and log on with my brain engaged in the morning.
EmbarrASSed,
Manny
