New updates for pp. 1-10, including a strangely prescient quote on Elliot Spitzer.
Maybe I'm super paranoid, but I wonder about the timing of the Spitzer Scandal, and who stood to gain, and I'm thinking of the Bear-Stearns bailout - which was a major shift in Federal Reserve Policy. Eh, I dunno. Better start putting that beer bottle on my doorknob at night.
