Chad, saw your brother on NBC. They didn't let him say enough IMO.

During the broadcast the reporter covering the bin Laden shorting story said something to the effect of "bin Laden invested in shorts so he could profit from their decline". After watching that, someone turned to me and said "huh?". Brokaw completely let it go by; didn't even attempt to explain shorting. If the American public only knew.

They also keep talking about the "black boxes" of the crashed airliners. They're not black, they're day-glo orange.
