First, read this article in the Register to find out who Elliot Spitzer is. Then read his speech to an awards ceremony for stock analysts to discover why he's actually really cool. He basically took an opportunity to speak to stock analysts, and used it to tell them exactly what every poor idiot who got burned in the dot-com crash has been wanting to scream at them for two years now. He couldn't have been more willingly offensive if he'd cracked eggs down their dinner jackets. It's an amazing speech, and those fuckers really needed to be told. The speech also includes some nitty-gritty details of just how evil stock analysts are, and is worth reading just for that.
