O.T. - Scrapps,

And obviously I agree that as a USRX shareholder, I would have rather seen USR get the 75 Mill order. And yes, 75 Mill is a whole heap more than I'll ever make in my lifetime, so yes, compared to my personal income, 75 Mill is HUGE. But in the context of "is this 75 Mill a big coup for MOT", in my opinion no, because it remains to be seen whether the cable co's will be widely deploying these things. This is IMO, like 99% of what is posted is opinions.

Also, I never asked you to agree with me. I only said that if we do disagree, we may have to let it go at that.

>oh and Derek loves to give me a jab if I leave myself open.<

This wasn't a good week to be giving each other jabs, IMO.

>this is not a pitiful thread!!<

Perhaps it is good for entertainment purposes, and I suppose I have learned some new things. But consider: There have been over 10,000 posts on this thread alone since USRX last hit 80, and USRX is now in the mid 50's. Probably at least 98% of the on-topic posts have been bullish, the whole bloody way down. Maybe pitiful is too strong a word, but I suggest that in the interests of becoming better investors, we should be more receptive to those with different opinions (read: bearish) to give their thoughts and reasonings without shouting them down. Otherwise, this thread is nothing more than a group of cheer-leaders. It's fun to cheer-lead and there's nothing wrong with that, but having reasonable, unemotional discussions on why a stock may be heading in a particular direction would make reading this thread a more worth-while expenditure of time. It may also allow people to make better investment decisions.
