...what do you say we let bygones by bygones. Sure I got sore about the Hunter review, but who wouldn't have? It was a low blow putting my name on a piece of crap like that. But I won't hold a grudge...
...married, I'm going to treat it like a real commitment. I'm not going to sign a prenuptial agreement even though you probably think that's the only rational thing to do.

Just because they happen to be more interested in the market than the average investor, that's no reason to keep them out." That view is echoed by Edward Fleischman, a former SEC commissioner, who wonders, "How can the SEC justify approving any rule that takes liquidity...
