<<The stuff which goes in wheelbarrows is chimpanzee stuff. Sure, it was great for the dark ages and the industrial revolution gave us levers and machines to replace our muscles to produce trains full of stuff rather than wheelbarrows full [which was our limit before machinery]. But the cyberspace revolution is enabling and replacing our brains. That is seriously valuable! It will make the industrial revolution look like the invention of flint axes.>>

Maurice, wheelbarrows are OK. Try to hire the contractor with this cart to lay down garage pad. You'll find out this chimpanzee is more expensive than senior computer analyst.

As for the cyberspace revolution and brain replacement and how valuable for humans it'll be, near future will tell us. So far looking at latest MSFT numbers (others I don't want to bring even) I have the right to doubt and go short against new economy. Maybe next generation, Maurice. So far the opportunities to make a good call are ONLY on short side, beside gold as a hedge against turmoil in world currency system which will take place. Best part is, the bulls are still in record numbers - lots of beef.
