i hear you on that. the funds i use most often are the ones where i have had the opportunity to meet with some of the big guys. i like Lord Abbett because they have remained a partnership. they don't pay there managers based on 1 year performance but on a 48 month average. they split control of each fund up amongst a team rather than having one person sitting on top, so there is less likelihood of the entire fund going left when it should go right.
american funds operates in the same manner except each fund is broken down further to portfolio managers. they each run their piece of the pie like an independent fund.
again, i don't look for lightning in a bottle. conservative, responsible, consistant performance = a quality fund IMO
