Dr. Id,

re: How about the guys who attached the rocket engine to their car, and forgot about how they would stop it and crashed into a mountain?

According to the following that is really just an urban legend, sort of.


Someday they'll say that my poor options plays and use of margin was just an urban legend too. Though it would pale compared to the urban legend of the one they called tekboy.

I can top that:

Not so long ago, someone bought

wcom at 60
amat at 115
msft at 115
qcom at 200
yhoo at 230
and, last but not the least in over-the-top exuberance.....
ntap at 150

And those are the high-quality sector leaders. Think about the investors who bought klic and aapl and DrCoop.com at the top. These are the people who need that warning on plastic bags that says: "this is not a toy. Do not eat this, or put it over your head."
