The link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHiq3nb471U&feature=youtu.be is for an 11 min interview with James Grant

Here is some of the info from the video

Yes, he did say it, but just to explain how people felt about it in 1996, as some people refer it to "the refuge of the fearful". Maybe when it will be called "the refuge of the smarts", it will be time to sell.
