    Mark Conway "professional stock Trading" Sentenced to 7 Years in jail

    Ouch. Can't help but think there will be many many more of these stories soon. The explosion in new HFs and traders/managers that think they have an edge, or that *think* they are the next Buzzy, will probably be followed by the "implosion" of 90% of 'em. And the pressure of impending...
