#2 Rafael---LOL! I tried to put the square root of -1, i.e. i into the probability, but it just came out as zero. Fred, I found a bug in your program, sorry, LOL!

#3 Saudi Arabia announced a limited amnesty Wednesday for Muslim militants who surrender in the next month, saying they will not face the death penalty

Refresh my memory, exactly how many real jihadis have gotten the death penalty lately?

#6 I screwed up. The event should have been better defined as "scores of militants surrender in SA". We know there are thousands of potential militants in SA, but the number with AK47s attached to their bodies is probably smaller. Was there ever an estimate done?

In any case, the lights have just been turned on in the Magic Kingdom. Now watch the scurrying. A futile attempt, but so fun to watch.

#9 Didn't President W. issue an ultimatum to nations who harbor terrorists about 2.5 years ago?

Even using the New Math, these Saudi jerks and the Clown Prince should have 48 hours to give the Coalition forces 20 reliable Al-Queda targets / base cities (I don't care which) for us to BOMB or we'll stick some ordinance up THEIR asses instead.

Allegedly, Al-Queda has been blackmailing the Saudis for years... so it shouldn't be a big deal for the Saudis to tell us where the terrorists are. Right??

#10 Where's the "repenting"? I didn't see the "repenting". I hear they're big on that over there. It's like two minutes for high sticking.
