William, do you know what a coupon pass is? If we had financial stability, why is greenspan & co printing money since october at a rate unseen in the history of this country? You think that action of flooding the market with cash has NOTHING to do with the nasdaq's 30 percent rise in a month? Or 48 percent in the last two months?

Don't confuse a printing press running at full capacity with a wonderful economy. It all seems rosy until the bottom falls out- you find yourself needing a wheelbarrow full of cash to buy a loaf of bread.

<<The last event this important was the Industrial Revolution, >>
Hey Harmond, what you need to say is old codgers like Glenn, you, and I were actually there in the Industrial Revolution. So now these young puppies like Craig Crawford will stand up when we walk in the room.
