I feel sad for Fiat. Even though Fiat is a massive company, paying off Chryslers debts will be too much for them.

You have been a sad tedious insecure little drongo for years now AtW.

The important part for me snaw is not how I look, but being able to predict events like this.

You have been a sad tedious insecure little drongo for years now AtW. Blessed with the intellect of a Cup-a-Soup and the wit of a toothbrush you are trapped in a seedy little bedsit with your Walter Mitty attitude towards this SKA nonsense that you waste your time with. I confidently predict that your best hope for a decent future will need to involve some sort of alien abduction, and can only hope that some extra-terrestrial visitors still regard the Midlands as a target rich environment.

[AtW]

Yep, I'm sure it'll make you very happy ...

[snaw]

Just think for a moment how smug I will be when SKA comes through...not long now!

Indeed.

I put my money into SKA and so far it looks like it was also the right decision...

Indeed.

Put your money where your mouth is Warren ...

Any idea how much of a kn0b this self congratulatory post makes you look?

You miss the point.

I read the situation correctly for all 3 big US car manufacturers, read carefully what I said and compare with current known situation:
1) Ford is doing much better than other - did not even take state money
2) GM seems in the middle
3) Chrysler the one going for bankrupcy (which in US does not mean outright closure like it happened in UK with Rover)

Well it was a better than evens bet considering all the 'news' at the time!

If I asked you it would only be so I can do the opposite of whatever you say.
