AR, they are only folk heroes while they are winning. Milken was definitely a hero. When you mentioned his name in my business, people got wistful looks on their faces. <G> But watch how the jackals feed on Warren Buffett or Bill Gates if they stumble. American only loves winners who are perfect. As soon as they become imperfect, we dump all over them. Which is why the country fell in love with the OJ Simpson trial.
