Don't sweat the small stuff,Karim.People have been harsh with me before;however,don't miss the point!

My first post regarding the "guitarplayer" was a joke--pure and simple--and probably had no place on a serious investing thread.

My second post regarding Bresson and his influence was not intended to be funny. Unless you have studied Bresson and Adams,you may not get the point,but there is one.

We don't know what leads some men to greatness ,but wouldn't it be wonderful if we could recognize the signs? If you could identify the administrative ability of a young Lee Iacoco or the vision of a Larry Ellison or the seemingly effortless ability to use power in a teen aged Bill Gates or the ability of a Wayne Jaizinga (sp?) to do the almost impossible time after time? You could make far more money than by analysing balance sheets.Shakespeare said "Some rise by sin and others by virtue fall" so maybe its all luck or fate or even chaos.I don't think so.

I don't intend to psychoanalyze Jerry Fiddler on the net--he's sensitive about that; but, I have a great deal of admiration for him and if I could understand him well enough to find another with some of his abilities, then I could have two companies in which to invest with confidence.

It's only because this IS a serious investing thread that I made the second post.

Good Luck

Mitch
