Dealer, I was about to go back into the lurk mode from whence I came and then you egg me on with this: Glad it got you out of the lurking mode and perhaps you will join us and voice your opinion more often It seems appropriate given the subject nature of the discussion that I cite some thing Voltaire said: "I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it." Now lest there be any confusion, the Voltaire who stated the above was the Voltaire who lived from 1694-1778; a "French philosopher, poet, novelist, playwright. He attacked tyranny, bigotry and religious fanaticism while working toward political reform". Also, before I am viewed as a rabble-rouser, I hasten to add that I appreciate this thread and those who frequent it including the insights of Voltaire on the market and stocks - referring now to the thread leader, not the French philosopher -g- I probably would never have come out of lurk mode except that I find censorship of any kind is abhorrent to me, especially on a thread that is ostensibly open to discussion on all subjects. Now, don't invite me to come out of lurk mode again! -g- Best regards to all
