All - WOW, I didn't know I would cause so many problems with my post. Sorry I couldn't post sooner, but I was away from my computer all afternoon.
Loren - I apologize. I am truly sorry if it bothered you for me to use your name in a flame. You are a much more eloquent writer than I am. I agreed with your previous posts about Nanny and was trying to 'second your opinion'. I know Nanny is a nice woman, but, as stated in my previous posts, it is her online persona (read: the way she often posts) that gets to me. Enough said, I should have learned from your example, and just keep my big mouth shut.
Count G & Jason - Thanks for setting me straight on being kicked off of SI. I was not aware it was a common occurance and had only known of two idividuals who were kicked off - Nanny and Ivan. And Ivan is not good company to be in with.
Count G - Don't correct me about my comments on Paul's short position at $25. I said both times that I mentioned I might be wrong. So don't chastise me by saying that I could be wrong. I fully admitted that at the time of my posts. First mention - "And unless I am missing something (which is probably the case)..." Second mention - "Unless Paul hasd been short for more than two years..."
That was part of my gripe with Nanny's phrase of 'By my calculation'. If I KNOW something, I say I know it. If I think something, I say I think it. If I don't know something, I say I might be wrong or ...
Nanny said 'by my calculation' which implied to me, she went back and looked at each post and did some rough calculation. So, I, being the curious person I am, looked at PRST 2 year graph. Low and behold, PRST was RARELY at the $25 level. So I made my comment and I stand by it.
Nanny - I'll stick to my guns on my points. I don't like your character, persona, way of posting, however you want to say it. I know you are a good person in real life and I bet I would enjoy your company in person, but many of us come across differently in typed words where tone, sarcasim <-sp, inflection, etc. don't come in to play. I bet I don't come across as the nice, easy going, handsom hunk that I am. (there was some sarcasim there, I hope you caught it) Apparently, I am one with the problem as no one else on this thread agrees with me, so I will grin and bear it.
