RTS, I saw numbers awhile back showing the numbers of viewers CNBC has(think it was about 6 months ago), and believe me when I say it dropped precipitously from late 99/2000 levels. I honestly believe that many are now simply putting their $$ into their homes believing that this tree will grow to the sky, or into commoditios believing that this tree will grow to the sky, or blindly into mutual funds, and are not "into" the market as they once were. I believe this on a logical level after what happened in 2000, and also from anecdotal evidence I see and hear everyday. I am not sure how much time it will take before people take a genuine interest in the stock market again, but it could be awhile. How long after 1929 did people really start talking about the stock market again? I don't know the answer to that, but I will bet it was not 5 years later for the population as a whole. Regards, Brian
