Kudos to you Mark! Let's all just give it a rest!
How easy it is for all to sit back in our chair, hidden by hundreds and thousands of miles of wire, just typing into a computer and spouting off like we are King TUT! The emotion and rage that can build under such obscurity is enormous. You think road rage is bad, if anyone could ever unleash the rage of computer maniacs hidden behind a computer monitor, we'd be in some serious trouble. All of the laws of ediquitte, decency, and morality are thrown out the window in these circumstances. Why do you think it's so easy to push a button to launch a missile or fire a gun when your opponent is out of sight? Because you can't see the affect that it has on THEIR life? You just get caught up in your own intentions and morality.
I don't mean to preach, and I certainly don't think that I'm that important or even intelligent (especially as it comes to investing as I let too much emotion rule my decisions to buy and sell), but I do think I have good common sense and a knowledge of what's right and what's wrong. This constant feuding and bickering and downright evilness that has pervaded this, as well as hundreds other, threads is troubling and really not what they were set up for in the first place.
Sharing of information on these threads is the most powerful resouce that the common investor has ever had in our drive to make money. Cause at the end of the day, that's what it's all about. Making money.
Can we all just try to respect each others comments and let opinions be just that, opinions.
