I just listened to the whole talk:

wallstreetuncut.com

I can't remember what or when I download things, but somehow my computer knew what it was and it worked fine. It was a pleasure to hear you for more than 22 seconds at a time, which is about the maximum sound-byte that you get when you open your mouth on CNBC.

The lucidity of the talk reminds me of the effect you get when you set a candle on a rock in a cave and then walk away a hundred yards from it. Being a bear is perhaps not as unpleasant as being a senator opposed to the Vietnam War in its opening stages, as Fulbright and Gore (senior) were, and you can't be thrown out of office by public stupidity the way they were. But the ruling insanity, at least as defined by an inability to perceive risk, is even greater now. You don't have demonstrators chanting, "Hell, no, we won't buy!" Or, "Greenspan, Greenspan, Dump him in the ash-can!" That could all change in a great hurry.
