I guess with such twisted mind set Giffords could also say that soldiers bleeding upon the land are polluting. Too difficult for me to comprehand such logic.

I subscribe to 'The Daily Pfennig' by Chuck Butler of Everbank in St. Louis. I recommend it and it is a plug Agoracom, so remove it if objecting.

I add an exerpt from Friday's Pfennig about US media attempting to misinform US citizens, so I do not blame ordinary 'Joe' for being out of touch or slow to learn:

< During the euro-debt crisis, CNBC and all of the other cable channels directed toward the stock jockeys whipped their viewers into a hysteria. They convinced the masses that the US was the only place to park your money, Europe and Asia were just too risky! I can't tell you how many times I would see someone on the monitors up above our trade desk talking about the risks of a China asset bubble, or the how the Euro was going to be crushed by the sovereign debt crisis. These equity market cheerleaders had everyone convinced that the US was way ahead of the rest of the world on their way out of the global downturn.

But the debt crisis has calmed, and markets are starting to return to normal, giving
investors an opportunity to see through the fog of hysteria. And when you look at the
economic data, the rest of the world really doesn't look that bad. Investors are now
starting to realize that the US economy really isn't that far ahead, and looks to be
slipping back again. The economies of Europe are on a 'slow and steady' path of recovery, and China and India have continued what many in the popular press have called an 'unsustainable' level of growth. >

So people are learning.
Do you sometimes see some parallelism to views about Noront among many other stocks?
I do, Ed.
