Hi Jim.
Sure, meteorology, climatology, Internet cloud dynamics, economics, machs nicht. Reading through your post I see formations similar to the rise,fall and rise again of submarine cable markets over the past fifteen years. Interesting reading, thanks. It happens that I'm presently mulling some of the same psychological dynamics you cited in your post. Voodoo, and the like, that is. Powerful stuff, as you know. Speaking of which, did you or anyone else here catch 60 Mins last night? The topic of mass dillusion during the early sub-prime days came up, which exemplifies what I meant by Voodoo up above.
