Welcome to a serious discussion on SI.
If you re-examine how you introduced yourself, you would know how and why I responded the way I did. I welcome a constructive dialogue--as you now suggest. I hope you decide to stay on SI. I think you'll enjoy it.
Please forgive my comments regarding you and your roommate. I know you're good buddies and I respect and value friendship. Actually, I enjoyed his comments and enthusiasm, as he described his visiting the NETZ/Bellcore booth at the New York tech fair. I also thought people on AOL unfairly trashed him for his exuberance.
As a note, there are several of us who not only have invested money into NETZ, but we've committed to hard research to try and figure out the pros and cons. I reacted harshly against you because you entered the dialogue with harsh and seemingly, in my view, contradictory remarks. The record of prior postings will demonstrate this.
No need for personal vendetta. I certainly have none toward you. I would much rather have humor be the backup to disagreement, rather than anger. Sure I've made mistakes and I'm going to make more. I made one today where I had to admit a goof. I also understand that it's possible to be both right and wrong. Haven't you ever felt this way?
I look forward to sharing information with you, and your roommate. He, too, has argued a strong case for NETZ. I witnessed it. He stood up against many challenges. In the end, I believe he'll be right.
In closing, you have to think to remember the people who bought in at a buck don't want to see it at .20 again. On the other hand, given other trading strategies, one might like to see it go down in order to buy tons more. Here again, it gets back to the possibility of being both right and wrong at the same time. Good luck. |
