Good morning, BensonInvestor, and thanks for your carefully thought-out DD on one stock, with I hope others to come. As you read more and get a little immersion in the "culture" of this board, you'll recognize that some valued posters (EC in particular) are Merry Pranksters. They don't mock or insult so much as yank chains and provoke. We've learned over time when EC is being serious. I expect nearly everyone in this fairly sophisticated crowd picked up on your point about CCH's copper, filtered EC's comments on CCH as being about its gold, and thought no less of your DD or likely the stock's prospects even before you got after him for his post.

As you read more here I think you'll realize the audience knows what they're doing, the posters know the audience knows, the audience knows the posters know, ... you get the idea. It's not a tightly wound group---there is a lot of jousting and playfulness and a lot of knowledge is assumed. If you get criticism for any recent posts, it's about tone, not content. Given the state of board knowledge and poster histories, people rarely take umbrage (or at least vent it very strongly) at someone else saying something considered (or admittedly) wrong about a favorite stock. They just nicely correct the fact, misperception, etc.

A guy who's as careful and detailed and analytical as you can sure add to this board. Best wishes.
