daryll, OT but contains an AMAT reference

Forbes asked a bunch of pro investors to pick one stock only to be long or short for 2002. One guy picked Enron long, another chose AMAT short. Here's the list, but it reads better on the web site forbes.com
I hope the ENE and AMAT guys are not representative of the whole bunch.
