>>He never struck me as a bullshitter (except when he tried to justify the valuations of his stocks which I never took seriously)<<

craig, you were wise. others weren't. the bull market wore down many folks with a reasoned investing approach and they said to h*ll with it, i'm in no matter how silly it is. they did this, in part, b/c the williams of the world bsed like mad about a "new era." even you admit it was bs.

i saw it as such. however, others threw in the towel and eventually lost their butt. is william at fault? he sure enjoyed basking in the glory and being viewed as a guru by many. he did play a prt in some people's decision making process. even so, i don't think he deserves most of the trashing he gets b/c some folks play the blame game too much. they are probably shell shocked.

my only issue with william is that i said a gazillion times that his style of speculating always ends badly. of course, he disagreed. vehemently. he was also wrong to do so.
