Poet,

<< you rely on Jim Willie's and Voltaire's advice and friendship in private, but don't defend them in public >>

I'm sure that cuf will respond, but as for me I think Jim Willie & Volt can hold their own with one of the worlds great ranters (and all that implies) and don't need a lot of defending.

<< The smoke's too thick in here >>

Yup, Maury's was like that once back when "Sang the Whiffenpoofs assemled, with their glasses raisd on high ..."

Out of curiosity I am wondering why someone hasn't attempted to revive the "Qualcomm... The Sky's The Limit....Trading Strategies, TA" thread started by DaveMG. It really started out to be a pretty good thread.

Thanks for dropping by. Sorry about the smoke. Not much we can do about it.

Be happy to, Poet, or at least as happy as a curmudgeon can be.

I rely on no one's advice. I think either of those gentleman would confirm that we have exchanged ideas as equals.

I not only have defended Voltaire on numerous occasions, I built Voltaire's Porch as a retreat for him and his friends.

Now perhaps you'll answer a question for me in return. Why did you brand Mquarice "sexist"? "To the casual observer, it appears you resort to sexual politics on a frequent basis.

Poet, I think the Q thread had enough of our dialog tonight, but I'm not about to go PM mode with you. No telling the spin you might put on a private encounter.

I've studiously avoided interaction with you, for obvious reasons, but you seem unwilling to return the favor. Let me assure you that every time you post to me, I will respond to your questions or concerns and then repeat the following question:

Why did you accuse Maurice of sexism?

There are several ways to end this:

1. Substantiate your accusation.
2. Apologize for your accusation.
3. Quit posting to me.

If you can't do #1, I would suggest that #2 would be very classy. At any rate, #3 closes the issue as far as I'm concerned. Your choice, Poet.
