Doug, I tried to PM this response and got that damned one or the other of us has the other on ignore message. Try putting me on ignore then removing me from it. It somewhat frosts me that we have to air the laundry in public.

  Each is our own arbiter of others credibility. 
  Re: I should think my call to get out of AMD last April should be credibility enough for most.>
  The post I most remember from that time is the one in which you said on the order of "I PM'd *Somebody* to that effect in near real time bak in...". 
  Re: I've posted all of my recent AMD/INTC trades in "near real time", btw.>
  Yes, I guess. You've posted a good number of buys, perhaps some sells, since ~May last year. I've not catalogued them, so it could be that my impression is wrong. My impression is that you're, over the last 9 months or so, behind on your trades. Money making trades are a good bit of credibility, IMO.
  This is, after all, an investor forum.
  Re: Perhaps a dose for yourself, doctor?>
  Perhaps. I've certainly not had the winning trades of some. Petz comes to mind, (His last buy trade post was on the order of I bought, maybe I shouldn't have, but the formula told me to... IIRC) as does KapKan4u who, IMO, was the best AMD trader who's ever posted on SI.
  For those who don't remember Kap:

  In real time we all make bad trades. For an example, in my case, I continued to hold AMD thinking that Dell coming on board would more than offset the INTC performance advantage for the limited CMW output. I was wrong. OOPS. Changed my mind and put out my "Out and then some" post.
  But I'll point out that I was up ~25% on my "And Then Some" 'till I closed those shorts Wednesday and am up ~10% on the very small number of calls I bought that day. One good trade, one that looks like it may be good, but we won't know till the trade closes with sale or expiration.
