Correction on Conflict of interest

From the same source where I got my information on Paulson. Thank God, we have not stooped down to such levels.
A number of folks, including a colleague of mine, have gently chided me for providing incorrect information about Paulson. Apparently he was required to divest himself of Goldman Sachs stock in the summer of 2006 after all (he probably wasn't thrilled to see the price nearly double after that, but in retrospect, he got out at a pretty good price - - and with taxes deferred, no less!). Thanks Andrew, Rob, and Jonathan for letting me know.
