<<what did greenspan say or not say >> Hi Bobby. Watched some of that. He said inflation is hard to find if you ignore oil and other commodities; he really isn't interested in deflating the market bubble, he's just concerned with wealth affect it's having; he also said that the old ways of gauging inflation no longer work, but he's really not sure what should be used today, and hey, the old ways could well work again sometime in the unknowable future; I see no inflation, fear no wealth affect, I'm just afraid this damn ship is gonna crash into the invisible dock. HHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! Wadda'ya do wit de drunken sailor, Wadda'ya do wit de drunken sailor, Wadda'ya do wit de drunken sailor, Early in de mornin. VBG

If he thinks 30$ oil prices are not inflationary, he's obviously a man without conscience or integrity. Does he think e-commerce will be successful with soaring energy prices? How the hell does he expect deliveries to be made with no trucks or airplanes to deliver them. Are these e-commerce sites going to eat the shipping charges forever and produce even wider losses on their margins this quarter? The South Florida ports are already losing millions a day with truckers strikes virtually shutting down deliveries. He wants a soft landing but his priming the pump with dollars that lose value every day is leading this country to stagflation. An economy that falls flat on its ass with soaring inflation as the oil price brings this goldilocks economy to its knees. Welcome to the new millennium, where not every world crisis can be shrugged off by the preponderance of inane utterances of the media minions. Later,
