This is also a man who wrote a fan letter to a hostile witness because he knew the witness was telling the truth. Schippers says he's the kind of lawyer who prefers to "play it according to the rules" rather than bend them to score a point off a legal opponent. By that standard alone, Schippers, 68, may seem an anomaly within the Beltway. In fact, he came to Washington only in March, having grown up and spent most of his professional life in Chicago.

Trespasser is truly innovative. Now if only it had some decent explosives...
...divergent as ever. Merrill Lynch rushed out a report saying profits are in trouble and interest rates must surely decline. Goldman Sachs discerns continued bliss as far as the eye can see. Morgan Stanley Dean Witter is convinced that inflation and higher rates are just around the bend. That's all I need to hear. There's enough muscle on both sides of the hinge to keep any momentum from carrying too far. I'll worry when the pros all line up on one side...
