Jay, I agree with the sentiment, but of course, being a gentlemen, I would not push ahead of the queue to buy said shares. I prefer to be polite and after other buyers are satisfied, if there are any crumbs left over for me from people needing a buyer of last resort, I'll be happy to defend the world's financial system by buying when everyone else refuses to.

Heck, so noble am I that if there are even more sellers who later decide to sell and absolutely nobody else will take the chance, I'll help Uncle Al KBE out by borrowing a Tonka Truckload of freshly printed, massively diluted $ to take responsibility for those shares on sale too.

I wonder if such heroism will earn me a KBE.

Please advise when you have satisfied your buying desires so that if any others are wanting to sell, I can help them out. I know you are a gentleman so you would no doubt be the penultimate buyer.

There will be a LOT of work to be found. I've got work needing doing. Lots and lots of it. I'll need millions of people inventing and producing. The pay rate won't be like the good old days of Y2K, but bread will be cheaper by then, so a few cents will go a lot further than now, despite the massive dilution of a cent by Uncle Al.

Noblesse Oblige,
Mqurice
