1. Defendants-appellants Continental Casualty Company and National Fire Insurance Company of Hartford (collectively "CNA") appeal from a judgment entered March 24, 1995 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on a jury verdict in favor of plaintiff-appellee Dean Witter Reynolds, Inc.  ("Dean Witter") on its claim of promissory estoppel against CNA, and from an order entered September 18, 1995 in that court that denied CNA's motions for judgment as a matter of law or a new trial pursuant to Rules 50 and 59 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  CNA argues that the evidence at trial was insufficient to support the jury's findings that (1) CNA had issued a clear and unambiguous promise to purchase bonds from Dean Witter, and (2) Dean Witter reasonably relied upon the promise.  CNA also argues that Dean Witter had to establish an unconscionable injury and that there was insufficient evidence of unconscionability.

2. We affirm substantially for the reasons stated in the opinion of the district court denying CNA's posttrial motions.   See Dean Witter Reynolds, Inc. v. Continental Casualty Co., 897 F.Supp. 142 (S.D.N.Y.1995).  We add only, in response to CNA's contention that the jury verdicts concerning breach of contract and promissory estoppel are inconsistent, that assuming such inconsistency, it "would provide no basis for reversal."
