tim...I must be honest with you, I found your call on cs a little disturbing .... It is nice that you are relaxed etc...but let's not go totally to the other extreme. Ossnat

I agree with you Tim about the wackos on message boards. For the most part these message boards are a waste of time because they do not serve the purpose for which they were meant. It seems that instead of serving the individual investor, these boards have become the playground of stock promoters, market makers, manipulators, people desperately in need of therapy and almost every other kind of wacko you can think of. These boards have to change to serve the regular investor or they will die. More likely they will lose the audience to message boards that are properly moderated. The Internet is quickly evolving and what we've experienced on these boards is something that fortunately will become a laughable memory instead of a permanent thing. Not to wave the flag or anything but I've found that two of the best message boards on SI are Canadian realtime daytrading boards. We all work together to keep the wackos out of our threads . . . so far we've had good success. Lola:)
