Mike, They are calling Faber "The Brain" now. I find it misleading as a wrestling fan, there is only one "brain," and that is Bobby The Brain Heenan. <G> Anyway, Jimmie Rogers was saying that he was horrified that the Fed was bailing out a hedge fund. Por Faber was saying that it had to be done and that you have to stop the systemic risk and now God is in his Heaven and all is right with the world. I was doing my crossword while listening, so that is just the flavor of Faber, not the exact words. The market, of course, rallied on the idea that one hedge fund was the only problem out there. <VBG> These bulls will believe anything. Except Mark Twain and Freeman Tilden, of course. MB
