...rally may yet come. As noted, the bulls can make a case, one largely hinged on lower interest rates. But for now, rates are steady, and the bears are in control. Long-term investors may want to start building positions. Don't be surprised, though, if tech bellwethers sink more before a sustained recovery. That's especially true of those with rich valuations like Cisco and fiber-optics darlings Corning and JDS Uniphase...
...carbon sink" proposal looks set to send any chance of implementing Kyoto down the drain. Instead, it will live on in that guilty limbo where we all store those New Year's resolutions we know we're never going to keep. The Clinton administration may have signed the treaty, but it did so safe in the knowledge that it wouldn't have a prayer in the Senate.

With some foreshadowing and a few facile twists of plot...
...have no doubt that Al Gore embraces global warming as an important issue, nor do I think that George Bush, if confronted with the evidence he claims to need, would truly wish to ignore the danger signs and destroy his brothers chances for reelection by allowing Florida to sink beneath the waves. Such platitudes, however, will remain as empty statements if there no legislative action taken in the next few months on their behalf. In the end, it will be up to whoever is elected on Tuesday--to the Presidency as well as to Congress--to bear the responsibility...
