Fleck, here's something in the way of deconstrucive criticism for her. Maybe her research would come out better if she eschewed the traditional presentation form of "the written word" (as this usually requires thought + the added step of having thoughts link into a coherent, rational whole)... ...and went with something different. You know, a "new research form" for a "new market paradigm". Maybe something like...well, why not... INTERPRETIVE DANCE! Just have a webcast of her interpreting her "research emanations" into modern dance movements. If you're basing things on hopes, well, why not go the full monty (actually...strike that last thought from the record...PLEASE!) Set her up with a bunch of old Martha Graham tapes. Maybe get Twyla Tharp to coach her (although, given the way it hit the wall today, maybe they should go with Elizabeth Streib). When it comes time to convey an estimate or a price target, she can just pull them out of her [ear], thus moving from the figurative to the literal! Heck, maybe you throw Joe in there too. Maybe you back her up with the "Gruntal Research Dance Troupe". If it really gets big, take it on road and do halftime shows at CBA games! Work on it a little more, smooth the rough edges, put a dramtic structure underneath it, exhume Rogers and Hammerstein...badda-bing, badda-boom...and next the you know you're opening in New Haven! Then onto Broadway! Imagine...opening night on the Great White Way...the marquee glittering...oh, the pageantry! The splendor! The spectacle of Mona and The Strong Buy's in "Mona's Choice" THIS would be groundbreaking. Think about it. If she really pushes the envelope she could end up being nominated for the Nobel for Economics... ...and a Tony award! Good trading, Tom
