I've missed the past two or three Hot Lines. Has JD mentioned NDE to anyone's knowledge?

Hulbert's recently featured Investor's World. They state that since 1982, IW lagged Wilshire 5000 Index by average of 2.7% a year, but even so, ranked #5 in risk-adjusted-return among the 29 newsletters HFD has tracked for 15 years. Beginning in 1982, when HFD started tracking IW, the report shows year by year percentage gains and losses for IW and Wilshire 5000. By adding the annual gains and losses (not compounding) I see something interesting. From 1982 through 1994, the IW numbers totaled 190.1, and the W5000 numbers totaled 191.5 - almost a dead heat. But from 1982 through 1997 (last year given) IW numbers totaled 256.6, and W5000 numbers totaled 280.5. The numbers show JD has slipped in last few years.
