Last April we ran a profile of the leading doomsayers -- the folks who aggressively argued that the economy was going to hell in a handbasket.
Of course, back in April that seemed very possible, and so many of these folks were riding huge waves of fame.
Since then, things have improved markedly, but it's hard to switch gears when you're mostly known for being negative.
And so we've updated our survey to introduce you to the brave holdouts. Despite the rally, they're warning us, Cassandra-like, that all is not well! The recovery is a mirage, and if we don't change our ways fast then we're screwed.

I picked up a three-speed at a garage sale for 25 bucks, and got new tubes for the tires on sale...I figured if things really get bad, I can haul water or food and use it as a mini-pickup...now, for a decent trailer...
Yup. I need the exercise any way. And, I probably won't be able to afford gasoline if some of the things I've read come true.
Maybe (ahem), I'll go into the delivering groceries business.
Nifty! Only three ingredients! Self rising flour, beer and White Sugar. Thank you!
Anyway, make mine with Point Special! (Is the paper pulp mill still operating upstream from the brewery I wonder?)
Recalling your old tagline, did you see that Ghiardelli double chocolate brownies were named the best out-of-box brownie? $2.00 for a box at the local Walmart. Get a case. Good investment for the coming dark age. You already have a bit of farmland I think; good for you!
Cool!
Thanks for the tip, Pete! And I changed my tagline back just for you!
