A "positive sum game" is one in which you come out of the game "ahead" of where you were before entering the game. A "zero sum game" is one in which you neither win nor lose. You come out no worse or better than you were before. A "negative sum game" is one in which you lose. You come out worse off than you were before. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
