...Last May, Deputy Russian Premier Ilya Klebanov said on the record that the Kursk blew up on its own torpedo. However, Moscow is still reluctant to name the cause of the explosion, but keeps hinting darkly at a possible collision with a NATO sub...
Those unfamiliar with Taylor, including ABC announcer Carol Lewis—who worried out loud whether Taylor could hold off Meissner—were left in awe with her toughness down the final straightaway.

Both of which are much nicer terms - and both of which are likely be the terms du jour well into 2002. And that?s if the consumers keep bailing...
