Joe, worse than that -

Yesterday one headline read "Al Dunlop promises higher share price (for Sun Beam.)" [I've heard him say, "it is absolutely ludicrous" (the sell of in the shares of Sun Beam last month)]

AOL CFO calculated that AOL stock price is worth $149 (but he sold some recently.)

Did you read the WSJ article on Mega Mergers (Today's Section A - page 23. I posted part of it on MU Sucks!)

Berkshire Hathaway Q1 results:
$582/share vs. 231/share (or $722 mil vs $284 mil)

That dude sure is doing some serious selling, man!

Joe, I have never read about aggressive accounting/accounting gimmickery being an issue during the 20's Have you? I raise this issue because not only have we shattered all previous valuations by a substantial margin but the quality of the reported earnings may be the worst ever making current valuations all the more absurd.
