WARREN. Get a hold of yourself! You are fevered.

I've seen the symptoms many times before. It's pnumismosis tellurium.


Pnumismosis Tellurium (n.)
An exotic, highly contagious and debilitating affliction thought to be caused by the simultaneous viewing of precious metals, especially gold, and any of several known commodities indices. PT manifests itself via the central nervous system in a "clutching" motion of the hands, followed by fever and auditory illusions of Barry White music.

Other symptoms include but are by no means limited to...
1) a wide-eyed, trance-like facial expression,
2) stuporous chanting (e.g. "400 800 1000 who knows") and
3) margin-buying of Indonesian gold mining shares.


Sadly...there is no cure.

God HELP you man.
