well, i'm not surprised that the biggest market mania of all time has spawned such oddities...why, even PLANTS were trading the market early last year (it was in one of Fleck's raps: in Sweden, someone hooked up a pot plant with an electrical device and used it for picking stocks. the plant was quite successful for a while, similar to the stock picking monkey).

while these stories don't mean much in and of themselves, they do have meaning in the big picture context: they show how utterly CRAZY the bubble got at its peak...and the resolution of such extremes in speculation can imo only be a secular bear, one that destroys capital&hopes&dreams for a long time....
