re: Shannon
Mike, after more thought, I would like to clarify my position to one of simply supporting Shannon’s participation on the thread. I have to agree with Jurgis’ opinion that the poll question was unfairly designed. On your second, separate issue, that of starting a moderated thread, I vote no. (The fact that so many people did not respond to your poll may in itself be an indication of its unfairness.) Paul says this problem isn’t about content, but I would guess that the original, personal animosity between you, Frank and JS from two years ago, was significantly inspired by differing viewpoints. I wish the three of you could just kiss, make up, get over it and move on. JS is a wise ass from time to time, but he has toned it down considerably. At the same time, I understand that my rantings about employee stock options, and JS’ rantings about valuation, should not be allowed to become a primary focus of the thread.
By the way, I am still waiting for Eric’s hunt report on NOK. I did try a brief hunt report once on SST and my pick promptly tanked! I had Wind picked for greatness as well, and it flopped too. Maybe I could be effectively used as a contrary indicator.
