Some of these people think we spend billions on the military to ensure us of our superiority without using the same to ensure we study what is our best financial alternatives might be. I see message after message on these down days telling me how we are all doomed. "Greenspan knows nothing!" The media comes up with all sorts of reasons for it. When it comes down to it, it's simply because we had such a great year that we are feeling this down fall. The Fed ensured that Y2K would not destroy us. Then we found out Y@K wasn't a factor and all of a sudden while the correction phase is upon us, investors have begun believing all this CNBC crap, and think that the Fed is going to let us waste away during the largest technological revolution of mankind! I see the writing on the wall. YOU see the writing on the wall. I'm certain that the major institutions see the writing on the wall. Yet, we have CNBC telling us that we are doomed because of all the earnings warning we are getting. 4 months from now, CNBC will be telling us that we are booming because oil has dropped, natural gas has dropped, and the Euro has dropped, and Greenspan's nut has dropped, and this and that has all dropped and we are still growing in the greatest technological revolution we have ever seen. At this point all of the geniuses will come out saying how obvious it was that we were not even close to being in financial problems. Consolidation of the dotcoms along with the various backbone broadbanders will have occurred, and everyone will be pointing out how smart this analyst was and that analyst was. And Abby Joe had it right from the get go! Wow! Let me start buying in here! (4 months later) I think we both know what a joke it is. Let them keep crapping in their pants in the mean while. I'll take their dirty shares off their trembling pathetic hands.
