Thanks Perry, not to turn this into a lovefest but you are easily one of the top ten minds in these boards, I’ve taken quite a bit from your posts, some philosiphy and some practical (shopping furniture on Craigs right now). I read a great deal from a variety of sources and there are some posters here who provide better insight than most paid authors and analysts, the only true sage advice is given for free. OK, since this was a warm fuzzy post, gotta close with a Lao Tzu quote, one that I think hits the current market conditions perfectly despite being written about 400 b.c. “Standing on tiptoe, you are unsteady”
