Sorry again for the delay, Heinz. I somehow missed your post earlier. Thanks for the compliment. It is a sin that so many bulls have been let of the hook by the same folks in the media who ridiculed those who espoused cautiousness. Maybe they'll start hanging 'em if ratings continue to fall. Everybody loves to watch the folks that cost 'em money die a painful, public death--it's in the genes. Wonder how long it will take the networks to figure out that if nonsense-spouting bulls are good for ratings when there's a tech mania, the opposite must also be true when the fit hits the shan? I propose that the only half-hour show on CNBC, The Edge, be replaced by The Ledge. It will have live audience members cow the most egregious touts with low-voltage cattle prods onto a narrow plank positioned 10' above a giant 4' pool of bull sh*t. Good for ratings? Hell, they'll pay to watch at the bottom. <g>
