i know you have done well...and history does present a nice base for your MSFT, et. al....however,,,history didn't begin in 1986 or whatever,,,history goes way back and one of these days,,,,the cycle will repeat,,,when??? who knows...

btw....being completely invested in one company is crazy,,,but i'm not the first to tell you that.

i know many of you are seasoned investors and are prudent bulls,,,but some of those who lurk here are not,,,and they do some crazy things like selling naked calls, and buying on margins....sure,,they'll be right and make some profits on the short run,,,but to be unwary or overextend one's risk,,,it's simply asking to be slaughtered....greed and fear rule the market...always have and always will...

Lindy- I got into Q "late" -in June. Oh well. SI, and this especially this thread has been the best research tool for me-by far. Very quickly Q has rocketed to be my largest holding, while JDSU is now my third largest. These two monsters (as well as a few others) wouldn't have even been on my radar screen without this thread and all the incredible posters. Quite an amazing thread.
