Alex,

Thanks for the Galbraith post. I really
enjoyed his book and its good to see that
we still have a few people who were around
in the 1930's to remind us of what can happen
when the bubble blows. PBS has been running
a fine series of historical documentary on
the 1930's depression in the United States.
The turmoil that could once again put the
human race on its ear is lapping at our feet.
I hope that the sturdyness of the United States
and Europe can halt the kind of turmoil we
have seen in Asia. As for me, I have already
suffered through some biotech positions, and
being long on IOM. For me, its just "back to
work on Monday" sydrome. However, I wonder
what will happen to those Baby Boomers that
thought they were going to retire in about 3
more years with a couple of million in the
bank? I would not venture to guess what they
might do after the bubble blows...

-John
