I am glad that there is some tone of respect in your response while I notice that you are unsure whether I fit in with Softechie or not. Please do not lump me with him. I think/hope that my post had a tone of concern and respect not one of rudeness. I made no effort to criticize your view on the market and stated clearly that I did not expect you to be Superman. I just stated an annoyance that I felt was affecting the quality of the thread for me. Thank you for responding. I guess the bottom line for me is that I am not really interested in hearing about trades made so far into the past that the information is no longer useful except as a recap. There are just two possible reactions. One is frustration when I am holding the bag. I cannot help but feel a tone of smugness even when the poster surely is not smug. I would say please refrain from this if this was my thread, but it certainly is not just my thread. So I feel free to state that it is annoying to me so that that annoyance can freely be discussed and if it bothers others, worked on. It is not the bad calls that bother me as much as the good news. Good news is OK when you make a great call and come back to celebrate it but when it relates to either no call at all or a bad one, it often results in frustration for this reader. Thanks

PS I absolutely take issue with this "Many of us work VERY hard here, and do not need to put up with nonsense. PERIOD" I take this thread very seriously and I know, from my very full PM Inbox that I am not alone in thinking that quality has suffered. I strongly suggest that you take note since you care about this thread. I am trying to help what many of us work very hard to do. I hope that you were just referring to Softechie here and not my post. But, I feel from your post that I am not included in that us who works hard. Rather I am nonsense and I am very sorry to hear that. It really hurts me. My post was in response to my respect for the time that you put into this thread. I would hope that you instead wonder why a poster who has been here for a year respectfully raises some concerns. And I wouldn't mind an apology for the impression that I am not part of the group that works hard and that this is nonsense. And I am sorry about the brink of the abyss quote. That was misplaced. I missed Softechie's agenda and clearly that is my own naivete.
