Mike...you're cool...otherwise you probably would have said worse.

Look, I just want to get across the fallacy of trying to predict the reactions of an irrational market run by emotional maniacs. That's why I like to make fun of all those chart masters...lordy, the last one about a little Indian formation...Please!

Anyway I know you've been here a long time (we both have) and that you are obviously a good investor otherwise you wouldn't have found Q, bought Q, stayed with Q...etc. But I think it is important that we always remind ourselves that our predictions have a tendency to backfire on us bigtime.

I traded Q often in the old days. Lost a few, made a few. I even pulled off what you did this AM (during our recent moves since Feb) and reinvested it at a lower price...twice...it was the 3rd time that did me in...cancelled all my gains in a sense by losing a 10 point move.

Anyway, I hope ya make millions and we can both buy each other a drink at the next Q meeting...that way, each transaction will cancel out and we'll be even! :)

Take Care,
Rick
