You missed my point, I think, Lefty. I don't admire criminality, I was commenting on the success of the hoax as a first of a kind. But, you point is well taken, even though I doubt as many people lost money to the scam as there were who made money. Seems to me the real losers may be the news providers (B'berg, et al) whose stories may now be more carefully scruitinized for truthfullness. And, I'm not sure that is a bad thing either.

I'm not sure I understood your final point; did you mean to say that the news providers should be held responsible for this hoax? If so, I don't understand how you came to that conclusion.

good trading,

jim
