Hi Susan!

It's like "Old world versus new world, who will win?"

I think the odds favor the new world winning. Or is it good to turn back to the ways of the past? What would that be called, de-evolve or something?

That's nice of them... sitting around hoping the Internet revolution fails when they could be helping out... doesn't seem very productive.

This is a funny line.

Who would have guessed investing would turn out to be such an emotional endeavor? The unknown is scary for most people. If financial journalists are not doing their homework, then I guess the Internets are pretty scary for them.
