Try to catch Al Greenspan's statements to Congress - he said something like "some stocks that have no near term prospects for earnings are bid out of proportion to any prospect years from now . . . this speculation is reason to consider the economy is getting inflated and interest rates may need to be raised." I swear that his statements could have been aimed right at Amazon.com and other internet stocks and are a reflection of what the bears have been saying about Amazon.com for months. I hope that the stock market come lately's get the message. Maybe this will be a message that the brokerages that are cleaning up on commissions on Amazon pay attention to; that they better reign in the beast (through their brokers and analysts) lest the Green meanie puts a damper on their entire bull market party!

In latitude 42 north to 41.25 north, longitude 49 west to longitude 50.3 west. Saw much heavy pack ice and great number large icebergs, also ice field. Weather good, clear." Phillips, who had already delivered a number of ice messages to the bridge, simply replied, "Received, thanks." This message, probably the most important received by the Titanic so far, went undelivered. The Mesaba had identified a huge ice field into which the Titanic was directly headed.
