Would you say that only the greedy lost money in the OSX in '98? I seem to recall that you were one of the leaders in that area. I'm not looking to pick a fight, and I'm not arguing that corrections are good for the market. But, don't be gleeful at the downfall of what is mostly individual investors. The hotshots will get bailed out and manage to rebuild their arrogance again. It's the poor guy who's broker just convinced them to buy some techs on margin at the signs of a turn-around last week who are being forced to sell out at up to 50 - 60% losses. A correction is maybe something to enjoy; a bloodbath like this week's should awaken just awe, fear and symapthy.
