Gary, That is so sad. I have been right much more than I have been wrong. What is sad? That you called for $35 when we were in the low 50's and we went to $70? Not sure what you mean. I remember another poster you claimed was "right" all the time. He told someone to go long CSCO as a TRADE at nearly 70 about a month ago. Now you are fabricating things. I don't recall ever supporting anyone at anytime on any thread when making a call. I wouldn't do such a thing and haven't. You and other's don't like me because I say politically unpopular things It has nothing to do with like. It has to do with providing constructive comments. I don't know you so how could I like or dislike you. I do dislike what you have done to the thread. But I am an easier target for your anger than those who share my views, What makes you believe I'm angry? I simply would like to have a constructive discussion environment. You are not interested in discussion or sharing opposing views. you are only interested in creating disruption. Again, I'm not angry I'm disappointed that you have chosen to ruin this thread. To me it is you who are pathetic. And now this. What was it that I said that caused this response? Do you feel threatened by me somehow? Perhaps it is you that don't want to hear opposing views? Not that I entirely have disagreed with you. But since I choose to voice my displeasure with your posting habits you now choose to make personal attacks on me. I've noticed that in the past you accuse others of this when most of the time it is you that start the problem. If you really wanted to be respected you would practice a bit more consideration and be a bit more humble... perhaps even try to understand other points of view. You can't handle the fact that someone is actually posting these truths that you would like swept under the rug. I've seen no truths... I see opinions. Why do you hate people, Gary? That is such an unproductive emotion. Disagree with me if you want, but what I have ever done to cause you to hate? Did I commit some unforgivable criminal act against your family? Did I steal from you? Why are you so emotional and willing to hate others? I would say it is you who should seek professional help. ???? I don't recall suggesting that you should seek professional help.. nor did my last post suggest any hate. In fact it was intended to be helpful - perhaps providing some insight to you as to why you are not respected here. I thought that perhaps you might think about the things I said a bit and take them a little to heart. I guess I was wrong. I don't hate you or anyone else - that takes to much work. A more accurate assessment of my feelings toward you would be disinterest or that you are inconsequential. It would appear to me, given your response, that it is you that has the emotional issues. Good luck to you. Don't I say I didn't try to help - I honestly did. Still, to re-iterate, I would truly love to have a Cisco discussion forum. I do think your views are duely noted and don't require further elaboration. So, as I said earlier perhaps you might consider moving on to the next over priced stock thread. I'm sure I'll be there too so you won't have to worry about missing me. OG

A market like this demands a cool head and a belief that a stock that was a winner at Christmas does not become a dog in 7 months. Panic and the diversion from a sound long term strategy is the great destroyer of wealth IMHO. Jeff Bezos of Amazon has it right when he said this week, " In the technology industry people tend to over-estimate the next two years and under-estimate the next 10 years" Sound words, regardless of what you think of his company.
