They had a major presence in Washington, lobbying on behalf of more weapons production. A group called INFACT led a consumer boycott against GE for this reason. I have not heard of any change in the above situation. Is GE still heavily involved in the nuclear weapons busisness? Is the boycott still active? -- Barry Angell barrya@gold.gvg.tek.com Work 916-478-3749 Grass Valley Group
