Mary, you should read the balance of this article in WSJ, Feb 26, pages C1 and continued on C23. Other interesting revelations include: * Mr. Murphy's last place fund has only $1.1M in assets * He's invested a lot in biotechs and small cap computer/semi stocks which he now refers to as "two strategic mistakes". * His biggest tech holding is currently LSI Logic (sold his INTC and AMAT in January) * Last paragraph of story: "Earlier on in life, Mr. Murphy attracted the attention of the police and the judicial system, he relates in this book. After experimenting with an unintentionally high dose of LSD, he says, he had a "personality breakdown," dropped out of law school and went on to rob a bank. He got his start in the financial world in 1968, he says, fresh out of Danbury Correctional Institution in Connecticut. I had no idea how colorful a person this guy was. Very interesting. regards, jh
