>>However, for her to call IOIH a moron smacks of the same immaturity we've seen from Stock Operator with his name calling.<< Obviously, many folks simply do not understand how cuddly NYC denizens are. It is considered high praise there to be called a moron, pedophile and/or sociopath. It can get you elected, or at least, garner a slot for you at the Police Academy. ;^) Whatever the merits of the argument on both sides, I cannot understand the purpose of name-calling in place of reason, but in some cultures it signifies pecking order... remember middle school? On the other hand, Kimberly apologized for her late post Friday, recognizing that gaffe. Credit where it's due. Let us move forward then. There are trades to be made in the coming week and competence coupled with honesty, compassion and supportiveness are the components necessary for successful teamwork, not ego nor repetitive scuffles. It would be wise to dust and shine the Karmic closets here. As a relative newcomer, I ask 3 questions: 1) If Kimberly Lee has parted from the forum she created, would courtesy dictate that the thread be left to rest in peace? 2) Can a new thread be established easily that better describes the full scope of trading suggestions tossed out here, since it has evolved to much more than sub-$5 stocks? 3) Since success of the new forum requires the mass migration of several dozen posters here, is there sufficient support for the creation of a new thread? I would hope, if it's attempted, that a group be formed to write the definition of said thread and that folks on both sides of this recent argument set aside the animosity in pursuit of what all came here for... to learn & share & stumble ahead and upwards as traders. And as humans. Something must change to quell the way my penguins have mocked me lately.
