OT Jill, I saw your conversation with Uncle on the MSFT thread. I must be mildly disagreeable with your statement I find this thread as useful as your stellar G&K in teaching me to be a better investor. I wouldn't dare post this on MSFT because of the flack that would result.

The MSFT thread is often a magnet to a host of non-constructive interactions. I have been guilty of participating in these interactions and even been provocative a time or two. Can you imagine that kind of behavior on this thread? Uncle has set a standard here that we all not only adhere to, but enforce.

OTOH, the options discussion on MSFT thread is very good, indeed.

It helps that G/K is not about any particular stock, so the cheerleading is minimal (except for Q <g>).

It helps that we follow Frank's example and that he is so consistent with his demeanor.

Frankly, (pun intended) I got caught up in the CPQ and INTC threads last year where civility is non-existent. Those threads give new SI subscribers a poor example of how to best use this incredible resource and communications medium.
