Yeah, i read it: Al has gotten a little smarter in the 30 years since he wrote that. This is not the 1920's or 30's. Someday there won't even be paper money: an all electronic One World currency.

Of course, people in the 50th State might still be using shells <G>

I just saw one of the scariest commercials on CNN that I've ever seen and I must post it:

It starts w/ a dad sitting at a computer nervously typing. He says to his 5 yr old son, "watch this" and presses a button, "that's your college money going to work."

It ends w/ some nutty jingle from an on-line brokerage co.

When this party ends, it will be a disaster for the country. Anybody notice that margin interest is at RECORD levels (I mean record since '29 too) It makes me ill to even think about it. The stupidity of it all.
