For those of you that travel, I love my EVDO Rev A service. 128 bit encryption and broadband downloads. :D

The depth of understanding on this board is outstanding. Hedge funds are NOT an investment, they are investment vehicles. Define the trade and take the other side of it if your convictions lay there. Explain to me how you plan to profit taking the other side of the pension fund's...
