I am honoured to share a commonality with Harriman, however coincidental it may be. Hey, when you're strapped and the house mortgage, the Visa card payment, and the girlfriend are all three months late, ... that can weigh heavily on decision making. So one might snap at more sensitive places than would have occured entering/exiting a good little gold or Y2K scam at just the right price points. <gg> Money's not the root of all evil. It's the root of getting pissed off, onto the travel path towards evil, when the cheques start going bouncy.

Some and few, are able to keep it in perspective, though: The true measure of wealth is how much you'd be worth if someone took away all of your money.

(Well, I had to add something deeply philosophical so as to round out this BBQ conversation... just to be a dickhead, which I'd be anyway, poor or rich. Now, back to the moron fighting)

"it's that he's saying the same as you here ... i still figure george harriman was a very clever person having us on"
