%%Speaking of guys named "PT" don't forget PT Barnum's famous quote "There's a sucker born every minute." And a little more word association: PT Barnum of Barnum & Bailey's famous circus and Scott Carney (carny = carnival)? Maybe there's a conspiracy here involving circuses, con men and exotic trading techniques.
STRANGE how some patterns still repeat.
PT Barnum , according to wki, had a ''book auction business'' LOL. An early trading scam of his\ the == Fegee Mermaid, had the body of a money + tail of a fish/LOL He spent time in jail for libel + wrote ''The Art of Money Getting''
