It was not my intention to explain away the incident...but if you look closely at NEM in 1985-87 it went parabolic...the drop just brought it back to a normal range from where it proceeded to rise over the ensuing years...to take the TOP of 80+ as a starting point for comparing drops as if that was the normal range seems misleading as it was an unrealistic level to begin with.. (sort of like $50 silver as a top measure in 1979)...again, due to the takeover effect/influence...chop that concentrated upper activity off (rational or irrational period though it may be) and one comes to a different conclusion...To use that incident to emphasize an argument seems like a poor choice...maybe AEM would have been a better candidate...I have no opinion...I just wanted to emphasize the unique circumstances in effect that are not explained in the chart (TRUE CAUSE AND EFFECT)...
