Are you a shorter, 'c.horn?'

Like, always -- or consistently -- play the short side?

Which may have made you rich? (Nothing wrong with that and I certainly wish I had done so sooner than I did over the past ... well, let's see, coming 'nigh up' -g- on a two-year anniversary of the NAS plummet to the bowels of Hell -g- (all you religious folks like the appropriate 'vernacular' there? I phrased it that way JUST FOR YOU -- the 'bowels of Hell' -- with an upper-case 'H,' mind you).

Although it's hard for retail investors like me to call the market and cash out at just the right times, for instance, as Karl Rove, Dick Cheney (Halliburton and possbily ENE as well), Bush Sr (Carlyle Group), and Jr (does anyone find access ever to his financial info? I don't remember it during the nauseating governorship here) ...

Inside information is necessary for that sort of 'market timing,' I believe. With 'knowledge' of pending 'legislation.'

The type of insider information to which Phil and Wendy Gramm, for example, were 'privy.'

Logically, that's the only conclusion I can make about your 'strong beliefs' that ENE is a harmless, isolated anomaly -- and further, is proof 'positive' that capitalism 'works.'
