Well, to make the discussion interesting, I was in Toronto last weekend, and there was an article in the Sunday Star (just so you guys won't call me an intellectual) on the study of happiness. Anyhow, apparently some Canadian psychologist has studied the issue and determined that once one has shelter and enough to eat, more money does not increase happiness, and actually, the happiest, or most satisfied group in Ontario is the Amish.

I think there were 7 key issues to be happy; family or close friends; a challenging job; faith; a feeling you were being treated fairly, and I forget the other 3 [after all I'm a Star reader].

So, my vote is that Ted pulls it all out, tells us all to piss off for bitching, and if he doesn't (pull it off, that is); it won't affect our happiness.

I was staying at the Park Hyatt (on a Fortune 500 sponsored trip). Shaquille O'Neill was there with assorted male and female hanger ons.

Think I'll stick with being a poor CMR shareholder. Not sure I want to run with the big money crowd.
