According to [Bubblemeter](http://bubblemeter.blogspot.com/2006/02/david-lereahs-new-book-why-real-estate.html), David Lereah, the Chief Economist for the National Association of Realtors (NAR) is changing the title of his real estate book (as seen on Amazon) from:

_[Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom?](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385514344/002-6616542-6786408?v=glance&n=283155)_ to _[Why the Real Estate Boom Will Not Bust.](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385514352/002-6616542-6786408?v=glance&n=283155)_

Notice how the word BOOM is the same size and the graphics are identical? The Walk-through’s [Old Fish In A New Wrapper](http://walkthrough.nytimes.com/?p=366) says the content is the same – Damon Darlin’s post provided a pretty good chuckle.

I had the chance to meet David Lereah in the green room before the taping of [CNBC’s Town Hall: Real Estate Boom](https://millersamuel.com/press/view.php?V=1112978480dhDnx) last year. It was me, Suze Orman, Robert Shiller and David Lereah. Surreal to say the least. All very nice I might add. I only had a small appearance – these people were the main characters in this production.

Mr. Lereah has provided a tremendous amount of fodder for the blogosphere, myself included. Up until now, its been the use of language which would seem to be misleading. Now its book titles. This sort of stuff might have worked 5 years ago but not today. People have access to information almost immediately.
