Daniel--To begin with I would imagine the term came out of general usage and the SEC uses it. Languages live, live long enough and you will learn that. They change and word meanings change. Language is a form of communication and if I use whatever usage of a word and I succeed in getting my meaning across then I have communicated. It is best for you to know the common meaning of front running, you can still use the SEC version if you like. So if someone asks you if you are front running you can say: "Well I am not a broker so in the strictest meaning of the term--no. But if you mean do I buy in in front of my picks before I publish them--Yes." Druss

Daniel<<I'll just take it you admit that your first post was not totally accurate>> Yeah right. I'll just take it that it was. I not only showed people were posting about you as a front runner I linked to a whole thread. I still think you were referring to Anthony too with your post about front running, not yourself, i.e. accusing him of unethical behavior. You need to try another career. You may lack some market skills but a life as a politician beckons for you to be sure. Druss
