Diamond, thanks for expressing your sentiments about participation on this message board. I agree with you. I've been a faithful lurker on this thread for nearly six months now, and I haven't missed a single post. You folks don't know how much I've laughed and cried along with you. Of course, I've also been a faithful investor/trader in our favorite sector through this turbulent period of time. The jokes, the fears, the sharing of well-thought out analysis and strategies.....it all works together to create the board's unique personality. Don't change....it wouldn't be the same.
The reason I choose to lurk and not post is simply because I don't feel anything I might have to say would add particular value. Usually there's someone expressing my sentiments for me, and I'm quietly in the background cheering them on. Plus, quite frankly, I'm cheap. It costs nothing to lurk, but if I choose to stay around past the expiration of my visitor pass, I'll have to cough up the requisite $125. Between now and then, I'll have to decide if I have the urge to post messages worth spending $125 for.
In the meantime, I think the party is a wonderful idea, and would love to have an excuse to visit the state where I was raised once again. Please count this golfer in!
