Point well taken, Steve. I'm done. We adopted a pit bull puppy yesterday. She'd been dumped on a roadside six weeks ago. She's a wonderful little thing, carries a stuffed animal around all day. Think it's time to play with her. :)

Good question Steve. <Why all the personal attacks folks?? Enough already. I treat cancer patients all day and investing is comic relief. Chill everyone!!! Everyone go hug your kids or pet your animals, you might find it therapeutic. > We just need to train Jim and a few others to civilized interaction and all the personal attacks will stop. It's just a brief educational process. Keep in mind that Jon, and perhaps others, enjoy the odd food fight, which is comic relief from investing. Some people find investing, especially when their stock is declining as fast as Qualcomm has, to be somewhat stressful. I bet some of them think that chemo would be preferable to another 30 points down on Q! Also, children [over a certain age] are often resistant to hugs. They don't want too many of them you know. That's why many people keep pets. They are more obedient too. Personally, this is quite therapeutic after having watched Jim Willie foul the stream for so long. Mqurice
