Re: PC: It was a bad move anyway?!?

["Jim Kosty" <j_kosty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I guess I was wondering what your point is, Larry?  Are you anti - Conrail, 
or anti - PC, or pro - Conrail, pro PC, anti - NS, CSX?  I just am having a 
hard time determining the crux of your argument.  Your points are well - 
taken, though.
Have a good day,
Jim
