Seth Klarmann makes a point about how irritated he got when he was expected to defend his track record agains scientific THEORY that said it was impossible, rather than academics being expected to defend their THEORIES against the FACTS of Klarmanns performance. They shouls stoick to...

Hmmm, Refco started advertising on CNN just a few days before............

Private Equity bailout is already in place - seems they made some bad investments and now are claiming their bailout entitlement alomg with anybody and everybody with lobbying power who made bad investments. Joe Public will have to eat his of course, no real lobbying power.
