Re: [eia] [escrow] December 1807 Political Phase


    Although I hate to be an ungracious opponent, Jim is probably right.  We
should probably just stick with what we send in.  Holding people to the
orders they send in is the best way to treat everyone fairly.  And it's also
probably the best way to avoid hard feelings if future requests to change
orders are denied.  So, somewhat reluctantly, I think I'll side with Jim on
this one.
