When you say pick up a phone and do some DD, do you mean call Dean and see what he has to say? Or do you mean call some of these supposed insiders who know more than the rest of us and listen to their back chatter? Both of them have been correct about things the same amount of times...
I have personally been lied to by Dean over the phone and I have heard all the back chatter for the last 9 months... None of it ammounted to a whole hell of a lot. Not sure which one was worse.
