re <insulting names>

Much noise and foolishness on investment forums could be avoided if everyone followed 3 simple rules:

1. attack the idea, not the person
2. don't post any conclusion, unless you can back it with logic, facts, numbers, links
3. admit your biases; don't presume you have the Truth; objectivity is a myth

So, for instance, I Believe (note the capital B) in global warming. I also admit this is a religious belief, which informs my world-view. I freely admit I tend to ignore facts which contradict my Global Warming Belief.
