It was just too good to let us, the simple-minded investors, foolish enough to think this was all on the up and up, know too much, to raise concern, to cause trouble with perfectly legal, unregistered, multibillion-dollar funds that worked hard to stay under government radar. Legally, they didn't have to say a thing...
