OT It is too bad some people cannot maintain a civil discourse, or if it is asked for refrain from posts which harass. I have sent 2 complaints to SI Admin and will continue to do so as long as I get posts directed towards me when I have already said I no longer want to participate in the discussion, for lack of a better word, that is taking place. I will not respond directly to any of these posts, but will merely forward them on, as I said in my original post It would be the last. I said in that post I did not care to discuss the matter further but a certain person persisted. I am not looking to chase anyone away; on the contrary, I am questioning whether I want to come here only to face abusive posts, lacking logical discussion of anything pertinant to AMAT, the equipment sector, the semiconductor sector, or technology for that matter. As I have said before I come here to discuss the merits of certain investments. This back and forth garbage does no one any good and detracts from the entire SI Community. I apologize that the AMAT thread is brought down to a level which is does not belong. This has always been one of the better threads for lack of this type of behavior. Let's hope that these past few days are an anomaly rather than the beginning of a trend. Brian *********************************************** BTW, I know it goes against net etiquette but I am posting the original PM that started this whole mess since I did not, and still do not, believe it was abusive or harrassing. He can only play the victim if everyone believes the prevarications he is spewing. No offense Michael, but you are one he of a hypocrite. You lambaste be for my opinions on tobacco, yet are in favor of abortion? LOL. BTW, after the treatment I received from you on the AMAT thread for a valid opinion, don't look for me coming to your defense anytime soon. I am beginning to understand what some of the Justa threaders were saying about you. No need to respond. BK
