Warning it is not for anyone of a nervous disposition. Comments welcome

Thank you very much Mr Flash@TMB for this kind remark about the article. I didn't mean to scare everybody - it is really a history lesson about not repeating past mistakes - but we all do that.

Funny if anything for the faces of the CNBC pundits! If you don't want to get pressganged into a government work programme and spend 10 years losing fingers in a factory, I would consider his final advice very carefully.

But wait for Au to bottom. Not quite there yet, I think.

Yahoo blames Bowie but the late James Brown did something similar a little earlier.
