John, RE: Warren Buffett

I noted back in January that when people start talking about Buffett being behind the times and a dinosaur (to the point that he was the subject of a negative Barron's cover story) then you know that there are a lot of people out there that either aren't thinking too clearly or aren't thinking at all.

"the ability to moniterize investor ignorance has never been greater"
<<the oracle has spoken>>

Sorry, I just can't put much weight on the "oracle" comment.
Sounds too much like sour grapes. My interpretation of the
remarks..." Oops, just lost 5 bil, who can I blame? Oh those
darn ignorant investors..."
Just goes to show that no matter how rich or smart, human
nature doesn't change much. Still hurts to lose...

By the way, what kind of "oracle" loses 5 bil?

In my opinion, those "ignorants" are going to drive the markets up to new highs, before the end of the year. I've
never been very fond of stepping in front of freight trains..
Call me one of those excessively optomistic morons.. but I
think I'd rather hitch a ride on the train than wait for the
"sky to fall".

Happy investing.
