Mark, I wholeheartedly agree with you. Larry seems to believe that the only valid observations of a stock are negative. Fred has consistently been positive and I, for one, will be very grateful to him if Valence comes through as most of us are hoping. I don't disagree that we need to take a balanced approach to investing and we certainly should consider the potential pitfalls but to dwell only on the negative has got to be depressing. I'll bet most of the readers of the thread are like me. When they see a post by Larry they feel like they are going to get a lecture and feel some reticence about reading it. When they see a post by Fred they are anxious to read it. Being around positive, optimistic people is a pleasure. Being around negative people is a drag. Sure, they don't lose much in life because they don't take risks. But, risk taking is what makes things happen. If it wasn't for risk takers there wouldn't be any Microsofts or Ciscos or Dells. If I lose my money on Valance I will be disappointed and a little poorer. But, I will have had fun in the process.

Fred, don't let them get you down. Most of us won't be angry with you if Valence doesn't come through. Nor should any who have stayed out of Valence be angry with Larry if it hits the mother lode. It is a pleasure to read your posts.

David
