Did anybody catch Al the Printer's testimony to the Something or Other committee? It was a bit surreal to see all those elected Senators fawning and staring enrapturedly at a rather undistinguised bureaucratic appointee, and begging for his approval, much like nerdy children speaking to their Schoolmaster.

Anyway, the Bubble Manager gave the all clear to internet speculation.

"U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan on Thursday said some Internet stocks reflect a ``pie in the sky'' view, but that others could succeed in the long-run, which would justify their higher prices."

Another priceless quote from Ayn Rand's groupie:

"Its very rare that you can be unqualifiedly bullish as you can be now"

This is from Jan 7th, 1973 - right before the worst bear market since 1929.
