Folks, Can we PLEASE turn the volume down on this personal stuff? One of these days we're going to be reading news stories about some kook who went postal and shot up a bunch of people because he got continually ridiculed on some Internet thread.

Las Vegas. May I direct you to the YAHOO thread which abounds with such well turned phrases as these. JohnG

Remember, we are going to ignore GC. That'll kill a attention-getting child like that. Wish SI had an Ignore feature.

Your message about gc is valid and understandable. I had written a post a few weeks ago that follows. Before you read it, though, you must understand you cannot "ignore" him out, you must "blast" him out, then and only then, will he go away. He has done his first step, of promising to go away only to return and he will run away like a puppy dog if you put the hammer down. Finally he has become a short, problem is that he is not a long or a short or a chart reader. He is some sap in a pretend world trying to be "somebody", and he accomplishes it by foolishly getting under peoples skins. In short, a SICKO. Anyway, here is the post from a few weeks ago. Saturday, Sep 18 1999 9:04AM ET To: Uncle Frank From: Zhivago Nice post to GC, and nice move on your stock. The past pattern with GC is repeating itself: `1. He tries to pretend he is a qualified chart reader (if there is such a thing) 2. To cover up he then pretends to own thousands and thousands of shares to impress everyone. 3. When he is then heavily pressed further about his chart reading and ownership, he gets belligerent and the whole thread gets ugly and out of focus. Lets see if this happens here too. I give it two weeks, Zhivago
