Au contraire...
I think that you will find the 'FlameThreaders' to be a very reverent bunch. Our Sacred Father, Druss, has admitted to the degree of awe that he feels around large sums of gold.
I have attempted to discuss with him, the writings of Kakuan and the Zen bulls. Druss even lead me to enlightenment on Plate 6...Riding the Bull home. I had refused to believe that the bubble could continue....

Riding the Bull home
Mounting the bull, slowly, I return homeward.
The voice of my flute intones through the evening.
Measuring with hand-beats the pulsating harmony, I direct the endless rhythm.
Whoever hears this melody will join me.


Or as Druss put it....'Why piss against the wind?'.
The man is wise.

Just recently, we were discussing 'biotechs', which I have a horror of being involved with....
So he mentioned the eighth plate....

Both Bull and Self Transcended
Whip, rope, person, and bull - all merge in No-thing.
This is so vast no message can stain it.
How may a snowflake exist in a raging fire?
Here are the footprints of the patriarchs.


So with this enlightenment in hand, I shall transcend my fear of biotechs and not be a snowflake....

One must recognize a Master and learn from him.
Respect would be nice....

Try not to blurt out, "Well, OK, You're the biggest stock slut that I know." Somehow, it lacks respect.....
