tech,

I have watched this debate for quite awhile now.

I appreciate your thinking, your attention span, and your track record.

(A metaphor disclaimer: some metaphor will follow):

But sometimes a warm fuzzy place is what people need.

For some people, this board clearly provides "a clean well-lighted place" in the dark nights of Wall Street.

IMHO with you, they get a nice warm fire too through a counter dependency dynamic. They feel more comfortable because you're out there dealing with the boogey man and the beasts just over the horizon, so when you return from the hunt, they get to criticize and nitpick from their armchairs while you sling down the kill before them, put aside your spears and panoply.

So sometimes people have a right to be happy with the stock they've bought. They don't want to know about the increased puts in May (ursine signs on the horizon which you notice because you've been out there working and hunting while they've been in here talking and reading the journal). That's cool, it's ok, it's human nature.

;-)
