Reply #64: I always go for the logical explanation...

oops...there is none! Well... the oil contracts have still not been signed, so I would think nothings a go, or everythings a 'maybe'. These guys have got to put the pedal to the metal before any low-lifes sneak in and grab the booty. The Salvador Option is obviously going very well in Iraq, and perhaps they want to take it on the road, stir up the pot, and see how it plays. If it's a big hit, they have their star performers waiting in the wings to bring the crowd to it's knees. Then also, the powers that be, do need a new boogey-man, and they could be just auditioning for the role. The only thing I'm sure of is anything is possible, and nothing is what it seems.
