That is simply incredible, Alan

I work very hard not to break my arm patting myself on the back. In my line of work there is a saying that it is better to be lucky than to be good, and I have very clear memories of times when I should have died, or killed someone else, or lost my fingers as a direct result of my own actions. I believe this helps me in investing in that I am fully aware of how badly I can screw things up. Not to start a lyric binge again, but there is an obscure song by a guy named John Cale titled "Fear is a mans' best friend", which speaks to this. Like Dale, I will only believe this if I can keep it up for a long period of time through various market conditions.
