Walt, So far both longs and shorts have been winners. It's all in the timing. I made a quick 6 points today and prob would have held be it not for the Y2K weekend ahead. It's just that equities are for making money, not harassing and name calling. My only argument with you was the options talk. Near expiry they can cause a short term blip, but most Wall Street players do worry about what's cheaper, shares or options. The time premium makes them often far more costly than shares in total profit/loss. I guess it boils down to my not understanding why anyone would waste an afternoon posting, when they aren't in the stock? Maybe looking for followers? I guess they are more to be pitied than censored. Fred

Walt, I can only speculate why you persist on this thread. Your messages started as reasonable but of late have become more and more mean spirited. You're not holding the stock and are bearing no practical information related to it. What's the point of staying here and stirring the pot? To insult people you don't know? How absurd. Its becoming tiresome and repetitive. To use your own analogy, how can you hear the signal if you are making all the static? It makes one wonder if you are truly interested in hearing anything. Consider going downtown and insulting passersby, or on a bridge over a freeway and spit. Its the same pastime and should be equally rewarding. Maybe you'll spit on a powerline and get that signal you're looking for. -Sofa Kingdom
