ACF, when the High Priest is warning of irrational exuberance but finally reluctantly agreeing that yes, there does indeed seem to be a technological productivity bonus, that is enough to send we Zombies into a buying frenzy.

Let's face it, he didn't say "Omigod, run for cover everyone, there is irrational exuberance". If he merely used sentences with meaning - oh hang on, we Zombies couldn't understand what he was saying, because he was unintelligible, using sentences with more than 4 words, and some of the words had several syllables, so we misunderstood his meaning, since we have a hole in our heads where linguistic interpretive skills normally reside.

Maybe our receiving devices lacked the necessary hardware and software to record and interpret the transmissions.

Let's face it, an analogue phone just sees buzzzzzz fizzzz rrrrrrkkk when it sees a cdma2000 signal. But a cdma2000 phone sees a live video clip of Pamela Anderson at the beach. He should have spoken and written in analogue, so we knew what the heck was going on. We thought Irrational Exuberance meant go for broke! Not that we would be broke.

When the High Priest gives the big buy signal, with warnings of Irrational Exuberance, it's not surprising that even after the markets have doubled again and gone into hyperdrive in many cases, we Mindless Zombie Irrational Exuberants ignored Jay, who is an obscure Minor Priest, hidden away in cyberspace on a rock in Gibraltar or somewhere.

But Jay, I listened to you! So you did have one successfull convert [partial anyway]. Isn't that enough of a congregation?
