Lt and Jumper, we would appreciate it if you could complete the questionnaire developed by Mark Peterson, CPA, below so we can better understand your intentions and motivation for posting the BS that you post. I see your type of posting on the Yahoo thread where you guys would thrive, but here we like to stick too the facts and thoughtful analysis. I don't think anybody would have a problem with a bearish point of view with some facts behind your statements. IMHO, we all appear to be having trouble with your "facts are irrelevant as long as I'm standing on a virtual soapbox" analysis and presenting your point of view in a non-circular "hurry up and stick your head in the sand because the sky is falling" manner that can be readily understood by the others on this thread, however unbelievable. Unfortunately, when I perused your profiles, I noticed that you inadvertently omitted a substantial amount of factual disclosures regarding your "I don't want anybody to know who I am or what they are paying me to post this drivel" attitude or may have altogether misrepresented them, a practice that is remarkably consistent with the way you post on this thread. In order for the thread members to better understand your background, may I respectfully ask you to supply the following information?
