Freeus and all, About the following post I wrote ... Freeus sez: But preserving capital has still suddenly become something I'm thinking about more than I was on Jan 3rd! Mike responds: I've always been amused that many who don't feel the need to diversify when their predominant stock is rising for some reason feel the need to do so when it is falling. I just received a PM from someone who, in the interest of preserving the integrity and civility of the thread, feels my response to Freeus has a tone that is unwarranted. If I offended anyone in any way, I apologize. However, I need to mention that people need to realize that we're lacking body language, facial expressions and voice inflection in this thread. Maybe it's my fault for not conveying my thoughts properly, BUT I WAS AGREEING WITH FREEUS! The person who PMd me also sent quotes (not using names) of people who say the thread is uninviting to newbies. For the record, I and others get PMs from people who feel newbies are extended an unusually warm welcome in our thread. Some people even e-mail though I have no idea how they get my e-mail address. My point is that this is a forum that is viewed to have its faults and its strengths depending on which side of the fence we sit on. But I really do think we need to focus on the content while we develop a little bit of a thick skin and some self-deprecating humor. Carpetologists are good at the self-deprecating humor because we have little else to rely on. :) --Mike Buckley
