<<RainForest Cafe is another example that worries me. Not that it crashed, but that it took one and a half years of being overpriced before it happened.>> You would have shorted the stock a few months ago if you'd seen the CEO's interview on CNBC. I hope his mom's not a Silicon Investor, but he's the kind of guy who makes you say "Whew, I'm glad he's not running my company. What an idiot." I doubt it's wise to make investment decisions like that, but his damn fool responses to the interviewer's questions assured me that he'd be unable to make good quick decisions in a tough industry like food service.
