Previously, it was only offering early notifications to 'Premier and other 'representative' customers,' or those customers who would sign a Non-disclosure statement."

    You great pessimist! The Bush administration isn't going to last four years. The Revolution will come before then; or a vote of No Confidence in the President.

    We Brits are getting wise, you'll soon be left high and dry in Iraq. Your army may be better funded, but ours are better trained and can do anything in spite of lousy equipment. You'll soon see who's saving whose arse when our boys come home. {BTW, does anyone else think Ken Bigley deserved everything he got? You bomb the f**k out of a country, then go over there and offer to help repair the damage you did -- for a very reasonable fee of course -- and expect the locals not to be annoyed? There's one less scouse git in the world and for that we should be grateful.}

    I give it about nine months before Bush and his christian taliban-alike manage to make some remark that annoys the jewish population. The Israelis and the Arabs will finally come together, jew and muslim united to crush the christians.
