    Nice article on the professor.

    Now at the age of sixty six, and with a degree in economics, I would have delighted to have had David as one of my professors when I was in college. Those that currently do … and who have studied under David in prior years … consider yourself lucky.

    @Catch22: Keep this good work up, and there's a chance you might be returned to your previous position as MFO official greeter. Article should be moved to Fund Discussion

    Thank you David for your investment in MFO and your monthly enlightenment...a recovering "dunderhead".

    Ah, gee-wiz, that Prof. Snowball is such a hard grader and demanding taskmaster. And he won't grant fund managers unending extensions, and hold grades in abeyance, until they get their act together. Woe unto you if you get placed in his class section!

    For a second here and there, while reading this blog, I coulda sworn I heard the voice of Roy. Sweet.

    Sorry, financial services industry, we're standing behind our professor's analyses; and, if we strongly concur, we're gonna amplify 'em. And if, by objective measure, your funds don't come close to the marks they should, we're calling you out, and you're getting a FAIL and withdrawal form to consider.
