So, I'm speeding along the Metro North rails, late on a Monday (eve of 9-11 aieee!), returning home from NYC after a meal of way too much red meat, red wine, and various forms of creamed vegetables and baked potato, and I read this from the Times:

Gen. David H. Petraeus said that by next summer the U.S. should be able to reduce its troop strength in Iraq to the level it was at before the recent increase.

I'd like to send that bottle back, please.
