John, a very astute observation about economists...in keeping with the general good humor of this thread I venture my own meager contribution that I hope can bring a smile to most of the hardy folks on this thread. Humor is needed by bulls and bears alike in these scary days. I am a semi-retired neurologist and occasionally remember some dark humor of the med school days sometimes worth repeating for everybody ( e.g. as previously posted, one of our profs told the students on surgery rotation to remember that eventually all bleeding stops.) Your comment about economists reminds me of a med school description of medical specialties: Internists are folks who know everything but do nothing. Surgeons know nothing but do everything. Psychiatrists know nothing and do nothing. Pathologists are folks who know everything, and they DO everything...a day too late (autopsies, I add for those barely awake enough to be reading this late..or early.)My apologies for digressing OT...God I DO love this thread! Jim Black
