Knighty, "in da terlet", now you tell me! And I was just getting the hang of this "being a bull thang" when Greenjeans first yelled fire in the theater, aka, irrational exuberance (pre Dow 6000 for new lurkers). We learned that was just Al's joking good natured way of shaking out the weak hands, as he soon testified seeing the internet light as there must be something to it to have generated that kind of interest in the first place. Then there was something or other about not being able to be some kind of O-Aces ;-) Noting he once again caused angst, he reassured us that some CB thingies were ready to sell gold for something else of no tangible value to defend some new pair of dimes (had to be made of palladium!). After that it gets even more technical, so lets just say all I can picture is some old fart yelling "pay no attention to that man behind the short squeeze" at a dog who's exposing him behind the curtain he's operating behind (sorry Andrea!) (also sorry if I made anyone picture that naked Monty Burns portrait). Well it would make a memorable Barron's cover -g-
