So would I, except that I don't gamble. In 5 years, I will be 82 years old and Tom will be 86 years old. Collecting on a bet, when everyone is that old, will be problematic. The New Yorker is not an independent business. It's a "brand" owned by Conde Nast: Therefore, the bet would need to be whether Conde Nast remains in business as part of Conde Nast or if Conde Nast sells or licenses The New Yorker brand to a different conglomerate or equity capital group. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com PO Box 272 http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Ben Lomond CA 95005-0272 Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558
