I understand it fully, I believe. Why did you snip out the part on 
determination?

"In making its determination, the court accepts the allegations 
in the complaint as true, and it draws all reasonable inferences 
in favor of the plaintiff."

Wallace alleged predatory pricing.

Whatever. But under 12(b)(6) standard, "the court accepts the 
allegations in the complaint as true, and it draws all reasonable 
inferences in favor of the plaintiff." 

Why are you trying to disprove Wallace's allegations when I'm 
talking about dismissal "based on failure to allege an 
anticompetitive effect". 

Wallace alleged predatory pricing and "predatory pricing has the 
requisite anticompetitive effect" (ARCO).

Do you follow me, dak?
