<Off Topic> Mike, we get the point now, that you dislike Wexler—got it a few hundred "I hate Wexler" posts ago. Doesn't seemed to have changed his mind. I don't think he cares. You could spend productive time with a few hundred more "I hate Wexler" posts until Year 2010, and I still doubt he'll change his opinion of your favourite stock.

Meanwhile, others here are reading the board for observations on a variety of other issues completely separate from GUMM. Hundreds of "I hate Wexler" posts not only fall on Wexler's ears—who doesn't care anyway—but also have the unintended consequence of annoying other folks who don't even care about GUMM or you. Essentially, you're not succeeding in pissing off Wexler, or changing his mind—but you are succeeding in pissing off a bunch of other people who wouldn't normally care about GUMM or you, anyway.

I'll help you out for a few days, so you can have some well-deserved time off—and that we can get a little rest, too. Feel free to refer people back to this post, for time efficiency:

Dec. 25 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 25 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 26 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 26 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 27 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 27 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 28 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 28 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 29 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 29 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 30 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 30 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Dec. 31 AM: "I hate Wexler." Dec. 31 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Jan. 01 AM: "I hate Wexler." Jan. 01 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Jan. 02 AM: "I hate Wexler." Jan. 02 PM: "I hate Wexler."
Jan. 03 AM: "I hate Wexler." Jan. 03 PM: "I hate Wexler."

Sure—nothing will change, but maybe you can hate Wexler back on the GUMM board where it's more relevant. Otherwise—here—you're not hurting Wexler a bit, whilst in process reflecting an image for people who otherwise wouldn't know GUMM or you.

In short, you're gumming up the board whilst demonstrating the concept of futility, to its highest pinnacle, and to your own, perhaps unrealized, chagrin. =-) <gg>
