KG4: This is the way I see it...

I believe this Porch was established originally as a message thread that 'welcomes' any and all ... from posts to (on) this very day from those who are most involved with it (I would say "leaders" and such, but know all of those people do not seek to be "head honchos," counselors, etc.)

We are all operating from a position of basically, having little or no control over our investments.

That's the way we certainly start out, agree?

It it through these wonderful message boards (not just the Porch -- all of investing Cyberspace) and all the genius of technology that we are able to communicate with each other in the first place.

ALL of us need to hear from each other. It's absolutely VITAL.

The bad and the good.

It's the only way we learn from each other.

We have NO HELP FROM ANYWHERE ELSE.

We MUST learn from each other. (And we have something to learn even from the 'anti-clowns' ... <g>)

Keep posting, honey ... please.

I thought just this morning, being an advertising type -- LOL -- I actually think a lot in "ad campaign slogan," (like, for ads, broadcast commercials, billboards, signage, etc) rhetoric:

"Voltaire's Porch: Open all night!"

(i.e. neon sign in the local diner type of concept ... can't you just SEE it? I'm not a small-town type but know in many small towns across this country the local Dairy Queen serves up much more than cheap food ... serve as locus for community ... that's the way I see this Porch and the people on it (and UNDER IT, Depy! <wink>)

Keith, you certainly don't have to stop posting here.
We are all pulling for you.
Ride this out. The dark clouds will soon disappear.
When they do, we hope you tell us all about it.

Keep your chin up.
Don't force any moves.
Collect your thoughts, pick a target and go for it.
A bottom in the Naz isn't far from us.

I plan to become fully invested as soon as the Naz tests the May lows give or take a couple hundred points.

It won't be long until your riding high again.

I'm looking forward to when you sign off as Keith@HappyAndPeppyAndBurstingWithLove.Com
