Ever since Bombardiers, I have watched for Po Bronson's thoughts and musings. I love the way he thinks. I had the pleasure of meeting him at a book reading at a book store at the World Trade Center in 1996 right after the publication of The First $20 Million is the Hardest. He foresaw the dotcom bubble with pinpoint accuracy. Interestingly, his predictions in Bombardiers took fifteen years to fulfill. Now, we have seen the scatterbrained rumor mongering of bored bond traders bring down Bear Stearns and threaten the stability of the dollar and the fabric of the credit markets. Talk about prognostication! He is like Nostradamus or should I say Cassandra! Well, done, Mr. Bronson!
