two unrelated things

from another editorial (I dont read the regular news): the whole kerpfiffle about livedoor buying up the tv stock was actually the handiwork of the famed murakami of the murakami fund. He encouraged Horie to buy up the stocks, mentioning that if livedoor took control of 1/3 of the stock, it could be combined with the funds holdings to claim a controlling stake in the company.

But then when the price soared as horie bought, murakami sold a good part of the fund's holdings for big gains, leaving Horie holding the bag. What a bitch!

also, "rock vapor" and a "tidal wave of earth"
