What is with the old fart spell checker? Good riddens. PS. We all know the need to publically correct someone's spelling (vs. by PM if it MUST be done at ALL) on an internet message board is a sign of intellectual and penile insecurity.

SOROS: OT This thread has not been around for years. One year in December. If you can not keep your post cordial and respectful, stay off MDA. Regards, LG

** OT ** Dear SOROS, I am truly impressed with your most cunning and articulate post. It would require a genuine pseudo-intellect to point out the petty spelling errors of other posters as you have concisely done here on this 'nice little thread'... but, why would anyone feel so compelled to do such a thing? Well, that's easy enough to understand... it makes you feel superior... Well, gee, I am in awe of your special literary insights... Let's face it, you decided to sell because you were fearful that the markets were going down... when you discovered that you were wrong in your market decision, you decided to blame your bad market move on the posters on this 'nice little thread' as you phrased it... I ask - is it mature, grown up, or wise to blame others for one's own foolishness and defective trade decisions..... I don't think so..... you could exercise some tolerance with yourself there..... Oh, while we're on the subject of correcting other posters' misspellings, perhaps someone should tap you on the shoulder and let you know that all punctuation belongs inside the quotation marks. You've put the punctuation outside the quotation marks several times throughout your interesting and provocative post while you went on about another poster's misspellings. Why, this is a serious error and a clear reflection of your poor writing skills.... Here's an example of your work: You wrote: >>I will ignore your calls for the "coming bear market".<< It should be: I will ignore your calls for the "coming bear market." Notice how the punctuation is inside the quotation marks... I could also point out several errors in syntax and other literary goofs found in your post, but why bother.. you're no longer reading the idiotic dribble of posters on this 'nice little thread'..... Please, humility and understanding are rare commodities these days, but these qualities are not in your instant possession... fortunately, not everyone is as perfect as you think you are.... My Best Regards. GZ

Soros, beara was an A student in spelin' in grammar school -gg- thats just my online slang, obtuse sense of humor and an occasional typo that i miss. csf.colorado.edu A manic market where participants make investment decisions based upon someones handle of the grammatical -ggg- I guess that is just as valid as using RSI, elliot waves or the mcCllelan discombobulator -gg- Edit: i just read all those posts that laid into you for that post, i didn't offend me one bit, i'm surprised that people ain't used to my wierd command of da english. EDIT II: Ya LG, what dclapp said!!!! The early apple pioneers were great innovators - don't diminish their tremendous contributions, in a galaxy a long time ago Macpaint, Macwrite, Hypercard were considered genius. i remain beara -gg-
