That isn't a prediction. It's an explicit statement of no prediction. He said that it is "not expected back" rather than "expected not to be back". They're two different things. The former asserts a _lack_ of expection/prediction. The latter asserts an expectation/prediction. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
