John, great reply!  I think Mark and Richard have a need to hang around this thread so that they can say I TOLD YOU SO, if MINE proves to be less of a winner than we suspect.
  This all has to do with risk takers and non risk takers, (cowards).
  They,  (the timid and cowardly, and usually of limited financial means), love to sit in the stands and critique the risk taking few of us.
  Did you know that only 5% of the population will complain, be confrontational, about a consumer problem?  Most people are cowardly and nonconfrontational, they just take their business elsewhere when they are unhappy with a service provider.
  So much for marketing data, there is another reason why Richard and his negative budds can not recognize a good opportunity when it bites them in the ass...  The loose so often when they do take risks that their judgement is impaired, i.e. they can not tell the mirages from the real oasis.
  They use their negativity to try to be smarter, wiser than than the rest of us.
  The joke is that they are lacking in intellect and appropriate risk taking behavior.  The aforementioned behavior is necessary for a species to survive.  You know, when do I come out of the bushes and grab the rabbit so that I can eat and then propagate?
  Please Mark and Richard, obey your conservative, chickenshit instincts and DO NOT invest in MINE.
  If you do not, you can come back latter and tell all of us who are definitely smarter than you, that we were wrong.  Such a validation!
  Excuse the somewhat personal attack, I really have had enough of combative, negative people like Richard M. and the like.  Yes, we are all entitled to our opinions but after monitoring this thread for months there are people who are just plain close minded party poopers.
  Richard get over IPM and your fight with Metals, drop the spitefulness.
  My how I can run on.  CIMA, Claude, Anthony H and John thanks for your lively posts, I thrive on any worthy information or analysis! I am  to enjoying this eventful week, love constructive criticism and dislike ignorant wet blankets.
  Yours this pleasant Memorial Day Weekend - {{ : > )  - Colleen   |
