I'm not sure I'd exactly say well, but nothing that I probably can't muddle through, no great tragedies or anything like that. Mostly just the type of thing that a lot of people are experiencing right now the way the economy is going.

Its been awhile since we've had any real conversation. Hopefully things are ok with you. I don't post here much, because "market trends and strategies" aren't my strong point (esp. the trends part, I'm with Casey Stengel on this, I “Never make predictions, especially about the future.” <g>, at least not predictions about the market that I believe are at all reliable.

The point I raised in support of your comment is one of my pet peeves. Some people are very quick to dismiss an idea or argument because someone they don't like raises or supports it. Some even act like the issue of the person raising the point (or some person or group connected to the person, or some idea the person raised in the past) proves the point right or wrong which is clearly ad-hominem. Even when it falls short of ad-hominem, its a way to close yourself off to new ideas and thoughts.
