Why is speculation in real estate good while speculation in human body
parts bad? I don't know -- might have something to do with the commodity
in question and how it's used, and what people think about it, don'cha
think? Speculation in itself is neither good or bad, but if people 
think that speculation in a particular commodity is bad, then it's bad.
