Ed: warning this may require excessive lateral thinking. I suggest that if we adopt CSCO shares as the unit of currency, then the merits of some people's strategy may emerge with stark clarity. Their qualifications as posters may also be revealed. For example, I myself have what I call a substantial nonposition. It is substantial because there is a great deal of money involved. Perhaps a small subdivision. It is a nonposition because I don't own a single share of CSCO. However, in CSCO currency, the nonposition I initiated nine months ago is the equivalent of a 3 bagger because I can buy 3x as many shares of CSCO today as I could back 9 months ago. Not many people can claim similar returns. My interest in CSCO is at least twofold. Firstly, I remain well informed of CSCO in case I should want to convert my non-position into a position. Secondly, CSCO is an icon of NASD. I could waste my time keeping up closely with six threads, or just do it once here. Far more efficient to post here. There are other reasons - like having nothing better to do on a Saturday night but log onto the Internet (sheesh, I should get a life) ... but none motivated by nefarious reasons or financial gain, I assure you. I hope this satisfies any curiosity with respect to me. John.
