Wondering if you or anyone else tells family members they will be off FR/TM in a minute and hours later they are still sitting at the keyboard????

Umm, that would be me.

Arafat Aide Claims He Is Not in Coma

By LARA SUKHTIAN


CLAMART, France - Yasser Arafat was not in a coma but remained in intensive care Saturday after undergoing more medical tests, a senior aide to the ailing Palestinian leader said. Test results were expected within days.

Nabil Abu Rdeneh, Arafat's spokesman, would not say whether his announcement meant Arafat had emerged from a coma or whether he had not been comatose at all. He also refused to say whether he saw Arafat personally, and he did not specify the nature of the new medical tests.
