Hi Jozef Halada; Re the longs and comprehension: They're wearing blinders.

Psychologically, the whole thing is fascinating. One is reminded of the aphorism, "keep your eyes open before marriage, and keep them closed afterwards." These people have married the stock, and now are keeping their eyes tightly closed. Eventually, reality will force its way in. My guess is that we will see some nasty divorce proceedings around the end of the year or so...

My favorite part is the paranoia starting to show up on the thread. That's probably the most obvious clue that the beginnings of just a few unpleasant facts are starting to drift into their closed minds.

The ability that humans have to keep hope alive in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary is probably the only thing that keeps them striving on this cold world. But sometimes you just have to laugh at it anyway.
