What this does remind me of, however, is similar nervous goings-on on the Dell thread in Feb. this
year; at that time, Voltaire also left never to return. And DELL tanked, never to return to its
pre-earnings annoucement highs.


Now - I know you don't mean to imply causality - or do you?

***Food***<to all: the offending remark said by Voltaire was...> You missed the most offensive remarks, which came from Jim Willie and were threats of actual violence when he meets WMolloy or myself. Also foul-mouthed abuse, constant vulgarity of a totally coarse and demeaning nature. Also outright slander.

The item you pointed out caused some people to respond and Voltaire gave a vituperative reply to that criticism [he is quite reasonable for the most part and does apologize when he realizes he was wrong].

Since you are concerned, you should read a little carefully. I'm just responding to people who hurl abuse at me or make comment as you have just done. Notice I treat your comments with the respect they deserve - you weren't abusive.

I think we are pretty much on track now, if we can just get WMolloy to understand just who is the guru and who the guree around here. Maybe we could do like the WTO and take turns playing 'Chief Guru with flocks of acolytes bearing sherry and myrrh'.

I'm not worried about this being a Delldown indicator. Though according to momentum, the stock went down last trading day, so it should be down tomorrow. Did you get that brianh?

PS: Just noticed my previous post was a 666 post! Now THAT's a worry.

1)voltaires departure has nothing to do with dells decline
2)Voltaire can be found at his OWN thread "voltaires porch"
3)the offending remarks were not the issue, the voodo was.

You missed the most offensive remarks (lifted from Maurice's post).

You also missed Ruffian making fun of the Miami Dolphins.

Shocking !

Jon.

>>>What occcurs to me to ask is, has Voltaire sold his holdings in Q and left his readers behind?<<<

Lord, I hope so.

Perhaps you'd like to get one of his vulgar (every other word is f..k) private messages. THEN maybe you'll understand. The man does not belong with nice people.

Mq...I have been thinking about your brain development theory. Quite good actually. Have you also considered the fact that females must be more rational and logical due to the price they pay for selecting the wrong mate? Males can afford to be ruled by testosterone in terms of mating practices because they can just walk away. However, females must spend a tremendous amount of energy during gestation for each mating decision. Therefore they must control their hormonal urges, or pay the price. Consequently I feel females would make much better presidents, prime ministers, etc. What is your expert opinion on this most pressing question?

he said he was selling to buy leaps, the other day he said he was buying. Who knows, does it matter? NOT one bit, what should matter is what you want to do.
