     From the NEW YORK OBSERVER, 31 July 2000, Nicholas von Hoffman column,
pg. 4, col. 2:

     Close in and knee-deep in it, Mr. Frank has made his determined way
through lakes of sludge to ridicule, shred, mock and expose the latter-day
propogandists of business globalism, the pump-and-jump artists and the
whorish hacks preaching New Age economics and New Order
authoritarianism--James J. Cramer, the Motley Fool, Joseph Nocera, James K.
Glassman, Lawrence Kudlow, Peter Lynch, the aforesaid Tom Peters, Lester
Thurow, Thomas Freidman and nota few more.

    "Pump-and-jump" is an aerobics exercise.
    The phrase has also been used to describe the activity of gas prices.
    It's inspired (if not related) to "pump-and-dump."  (See ADS-L archives.)
    RHHDAS hasn't reached "P."
