The theory about Buffet is taken from some statements he made about CDO's where they rewrote his comments on a message board post which changed his comments to apply to naked shorting because he compared the CDO derivitaves to "swimming naked" and of course the nut cases decided this referred to naked shorting.

Earlier this year he said a financial crisis reveals which players have been "swimming naked," because the tide goes out. That picture has worsened along with the crisis.
"We found out that Wall Street has been kind of a nudist beach," said Buffett, who is chairman and chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., which is based in Omaha.
