Hmm. Not terrible descriptions of the periods, I suppose, but why does he conclude that the third ended in '97? The US economy continued to chug along until 2000 or 2001 (depending on which political party you ask).

No problem - I'd be interested to know his views now.

BTW check out his website and you'll find some interesting articles under 'good reads'. Woody is clearly a nutter and constantly referred to himself as a genius in conversation. But he has some novel and often heretical insights.

Novel and heretical usually translate to interesting. Thanks for the link.
