Oh no, Bald Man!! You must be joking asking about my expertise in the arena of stocks. A couple of years ago I thought I was a futurist, a brilliant predictor of the technologies that would really make the next few years happen. Now I realize that I have lost almost all my money and my portfolio is filled with dogs so ugly and smelly that you could not even make fur collars out of them.

I do believe that there is a little irrational exuberance in the internet stocks, and high risk as well. I might buy some after a big correction, though. Has Amazon now posted a profit or anything? The valuations are absurd. When I want the thrill of sheer, self-destructive gambling, I usually indulge myself with small biotech companies. Well, now they are small, I mean. I bought Interneuron at $37.50 and now it is at $3.00, just as an example of my stock-picking wishcraft.
