Thanks, Frank, Ray. Yes, it's been a fine stock, and a fine thread.
They say a person should never allow internet comment to affect his decisions. And of course that's good advice, generally ... almost always. But of course it does affect our decisions, when it's part of our input. And we do get to know people here, we form judgements on their judgement, and on their integrity.
I tripped across the following posts back in the spring of '98 - exchange2000.com exchange2000.com
... posts by Abner Hosmer, Robert Dydo, John Fairchild, C. Bunka - these are guys I respect, so I took a closer look at arp. And guess what - I ended up buying a little arp paper, so then I ended up making a small whack of money and an excellent ROI for my time and few nickels. Now I fully expect to make more, on the same paper.
And if thoma ... um, Abner and Robert hadn't been there, I might have passed it up.
Eight million stories on these naked threads ...... muchas gracias, tb and RD |
