Hey Mark --

I value your posts tremendously and appreciate the time and sense you contribute to this thread.

However, I have to disagree with your premise that all information is good. Not so. There are degrees of quality (such as timeliness and accuracy) associated with data. That's how we derive credibility and why we value something printed in WSJ or NYT more than in the National Enquirer (or, dare I say, SI). When someone spews a series of what is essentially random number generated "prediction diarrhea" it adds nothing to the thread and in fact detracts from it considerably.

Fact is, I can let a lot slide, but the concentration of the posts factored by their volume and inaccuracy was too much for me to let it go uncommented.

I'll know return to the comfortable position of a lurking long with an avg. basis of $20-ish...
