News for this board: the inuts are alive and well. I will reiterate my contention that this contest will never be won due to the time frame necessary to win it. It seems like every time the bears start growling and pronouncing the end of the bubble, etc. it comes right back. Like the thing that wouldn't die. Looks like it will die the death of a thousand cuts, rather than decapitation. Regards

>>>Think about the attitude of Americans who were 10 years old or older in 1930, and therefore remember the 1930s first hand. Their attitudes towards savings, debt, stocks, and risk in general sure seems fuddy-duddy now<<< Daniel, while the Kondrietieff cycle has been called by many an agricultural cycle, some have called it a generational cycle, where the current generation forgets the mistakes of their grandparents. Now that average lifespans are around 70 and there is much action to repeal the Depression laws to keep separate, brokerages/banks/insurance, have we come full circle. ???? or do we have another new era -g- bb
