HERE IS ANOTHER APT QUOTE FROM THE DOOBIE BROTHERS... This is NOT meant to be offensive to any of our contributors here, nor any of their quotes from OTHER SI contributors... Just a saying that I love... "What a fool believes, he sees. The wise man has the power to reason away. What seems to be, is always better than nothing." IMHO, it describes the poor saps who actually believe that there is one HUGE conspiracy out to get them. If only they knew how SOOOOOO many pros are getting their asses handed to them in this current market. How come it is never a conspiracy when these same people MAKE money? It's such a great deal... If you make money, it is because you are a genius. If you lose money, don't worry, it's NOT your fault. It's somebody else's... Has anyone noticed how the mantra of the late 90's and the new millennium seems to be along the lines of this same theme? This goes back to our discussion on RB about personal responsibility and how rare it is in modern times. I guess I have become quite a cynic... SIGH All the best, -- Gene
