Read on Hacker News… most deliciously ironic riposte that I have ever had the pleasure to read. Either way, I'm grateful. Yes, thank goodness for our increased rationality since the days of Extraordinary Popular Delusions . If not for all the rational thinkers we have today, we might have had to endure one or even two completely irrational economic bubbles in the last decade alone. Man, wouldn't that have sucked? Anyway, I agree that the irrationality quotient is lower, but I wouldn't go so far as to claim that it's much lower. ;)
