"How on earth can anyone (esp with a job and a so called life) go back to number one and read all the posts?" It's just a question of priorities. I mean, let's say one can go through, oh, 200 posts an hour. (Number picked out of a hat, but probably in the ballpark with 10-message scrolling.) That would mean it would take about 44 hours for an absolute newbie to read the whole thread from the beginning--half an hour a day for three months, or an hour a day for six weeks. I don't know how much time people spend on investment-related research (including books, the business press, websurfing, etc.), but I bet if one substituted reading the G&K archives for everything else, it would go pretty quickly and be far more valuable in the long run... tekboy@plusyougettoseethehamsterdancealot.com
