Kathy: Silly? I dont think so. No way.
Wrong? Maybe, but, if so, you still make Lucy's point quite well.
After all, what really is the diff btwn a letter of credit and line of credit from the perspective of a bank's commitment to lend or obligation to fund?
Granted, some letters of credit have documentation conditions that must be met before the bank has to honor a draw (rather than a simple request or issuance of a check for a line of credit), but I think Lucy's right (pardon me if im putting words in her mouth) that this is a distinction w/out a difference.
