Today is one of those wonderful days- after reading hundreds of newbies ask the same question: "Doesn't Amazon split on Dec 18?" and then responding no, it doesnt, not until Jan 4, and having them say "You don't know what you're talking about, the press release says Dec 18!"

And I would respond, the only thing that will convince these idiots is for Dec 18 to come and go without a split- it doesnt matter how much evidence you present to them, they WILL NOT BELIEVE because they do not want to believe. The only thing that forces them to believe are the cold hard facts of waking up after Dec 18 and seeing no split.

Just as the only thing that will convince Amazon longs that they are investing in a mania bubble is for them to lose all their money. No arguments will get through to them at all- only poverty will convince them.

What's wrong with our education system? :)
