Yeah, i know you were joking ... i've traded a few while holding my nose ... there is some kind of weird purity in that, a complete absence of illusion of usefulness ... a sort of economic masturbation ... in a way i made money from Bre-X - never held it, but a friend did. He made serious coin, sold too early but [heh, heh] not too late, then using the money he and i did a deal [outside of stocks] on which we both gained considerably. It's a strange world.

The hype sort of promotion generally turns me off - it's like pushing the river ... capital will get well allocated over the long term based on nothing more than disclosure of the fundamentals ... happy factual stories should be told, though, like you say ..... but pardon me for not pushing the river in this specific case, i wouldn't mind a few more in the low .70s -g- .... thought we might get a run there yesterday and was prepared to trade a few off, 'twas not to be though ... it'll come when it comes ... when the rain she fall, the river he rise.
