Mr. Bishop: I acknowledge your post and your humility... I certainly will also admit that I am not the most tactful at times nor polite along with several others on this thread. And like you, I humble apologize to those and anyone else that I may have offended. This thread is not comprised of only "cheerleaders"...there are quite a few that are opposite, and believe it or not...there is a grain of truth of what they report. It is an expression of their opinion(s) and yah..they are entitled to it! I am of the opinion that argumentation and debating of the issue(s) regardless of the "personal factors" will bring out points to consider (on both sides)that would not have come to ones' attention. Sooooo, you "filter it out" and make the best decision to either accept or reject what has been said. Name calling...yes...it exists on every thread and also in the real world and not to be taken serious. I don't know of any indivdual who is in a "popularity contest" around here and feel that they should "sugar coat" their opinions! The Market is comprised of many different personalities and even on the floor of the exchange...words flare but at the end of the day...everyone sits down and has a beer or two! They will return the next day and most likely words will flare again...that just goes along with the turf! Yep...you have to have hide like a rhino as you move about the marketplace...some will like you...others will despise you...etc.etc.! Just don't take it serious...it usually is a technique exercised by both factions to seek knowledge. The longs are an irritant to the shorts and the shorts are an irritant to the longs...both go at it to evaluate the mood of the market in order to position themselves. Both desire the same...preservation of capital or increase of it!

Best of luck to you,

HKirby
