By the way... that WAS a nice call on the bond... and speaking of 'bonds'... or credits and credit spreads... another "Grant's" article:

Mike Brosnan, deputy comptroller for risk evaluation at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency: "Back then [The 80's] some of the weaker credits might not have had pay-down requirements for five years... nowadays we have seen some credits go out eight or nine years... AND these are not AAA credits, these are highly leveraged, non-investment grade credits that are prominent in syndication."

Pretty much what you were saying last week.
