O/T Burning Slider in effigy....... OK, I will greet you now Slider.......(VBG) Just remember the three great motivators used by politicians and manager throughout the ages: Greed, Fear and Envy. As you know, over the long term the market seeks a level based on profitability and fundamentals. Short term, it zigs and zags on emotions of greed and fear. I tend to follow your style. Look for long term fundamental values, and play short term moves to greed and fear as a contrarion. (sp) Its that simple. Now, if you still dont "get it", after reading the negative outpouring of emotional drivel from those that have been playing to your lead, I will lay it out in front of you, Mr. "Patton". Your writing style is engaging, fun, and clearly speaks to peoples greed. You clearly make it sound like you are lining your pockets with money, which inspires envy. As long as people are making money, they love you. But throw in a little fear and a downturn, and your A$$ is toast! Sir Patton: leadership requires of it a responsibility for the weak sheep as well as the strong soldiers in the army. Which is why I, for one, lose a bit of respect for you when I see you slap those poor weak soldiers at Yahoo as you try to wriggle free of any responsibility for your actions and posts. If you don't want to be in a position of leadership, then change the style of your posts. Terms such as "get it done, people", etc..... I for one, I think, "get" your posts, and the spirit in which you intend them. However, in fact, the correlation and timing of some of your posts to market movements is uncanny. Logic needs to prevail here. Either you are d#$$n good at timing the market, or there is a bandwagon effect created by, YES, You! I've watched and profited from it. In reading your reaction to the outrage and anger pointed your way, I sense you take it very personally, and take your personal honor and integrity seriously, let alone your good name and relationships developed on these boards. You are either a Machievellian schlickmeister a.la Uncle Bill Clinton, or the person of honor and integrity I think you are. (Clearly, you are smart enough to be either) Anyway, this is the last of this MEXP frap you will hear about from me. I am still long "for the duration". Hope you can learn from this....perhaps you can develop your own personalized (and humorous) trailer to put after ALL of your posts....something like....your mileage will vary...not valid after midnight tonight...some shifting and settling of contents may happen with shipping and handling.....I am not a crook........Do your own DD....AND....If you make actual investment decisions based on what I say here without following through and doing your own research and without taking personal responsibility for your personal actions, then you are either too lazy, inexperienced, or trusting a soul to be involved in this dirty dog eat dog game, and you should consider your money to be dog food....... Look forward to trading ideas with you in the future, Slide. And for the benefit of Mr. Bull and yourself from an old lurker......ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VBG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get it done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CPS
