Gidday Rick, I've just waded through about 700 posts in Buy Range!! Whew... Overall, it's actually a good stream again. I suppose partly because there have been so many people damaged by the low share price that the irrational exuberance of 1999 has been well and truly quenched and the purely emotionally expressive posts have largely been stopped as people stopped feeling exuberant. Well folks, hang in there. Roller coaster rides without sides or seat belts are indeed hazardous to health and I suppose a lot of people have been actually sent broke by the pessimism and crippled stock price. Let's just hope that they do NOT let financial loss blind them to the value and beauty still surrounding them. Let's hope they do NOT feel a sense of failure because failure is built into everything we do to a greater or lesser extent and while we are alive, there is still value to be found. Sometimes failures are big and sometimes small, but they still leave room to go on to succeed. Okay, lunch at Otto's [a flash restaurant here where ex-Qillionaires enjoyed celebrating - alongside NZ's richest person] might be off the menu and a bicycle might be affordable whereas a Porsche might not. But happiness doesn't depend on speed. Though it sure is fun. Still holding my 160 Q shares [or was it 120?] and waiting for $1tn market cap. Mqurice PS: See how a moderated stream is good? Rajala can't pollute the stream. Anyone wants to read his stuff can come over here. I wish there was a moderated stream where somebody banned everyone and collected, like a magpie, all the interesting and valuable posts, and links and put them in one place so we wouldn't miss the juicy bits but could avoid posts like this one. In case anyone asks, no, I'm too lazy. I've done my bit. Edit...thanks JK for the thanks. Remember, posters get far more out of posting than they put in. Put in one post, get 100x as much out. Note also that it is NOT late. It is only 5.56pm on Sunday. Finished!! Now I'm off for nice evening walk to look for CDMA photons around the neighbourhood.

Rick, I'm disappointed in you. You should show some compassion for those less fortunate than you. It's clear our friend has a learning disability. Instead of acting with indignation, look deep into your heart and generate some sympathy. Seeing's how Rajala clearly doesn't 'get it' I figure he's been sipping from a bottle of Finnish smelt/liqueur with Tero and has fallen under his spell. Hand it to the Finn, he IS good. He damn near had me convinced Q was going under at one time. Let's all bow our heads for a moment and pray for our comrade. Let's pray he doesn't lose ALL his money with his broken and faulty investment analysis. V
