The political discussion surrounding the U.S. elections and the moral issue about abortion sure played a major part in what we can almost call a fight. Of course this is not as it used to be in high school were you could literally fight with one guy and soon after become great friends. We all are intelligent adults, and if the two of you believe the other is a complete idiot, well let me tell you that you would not have lasted long in this market if you were. You have much more experience than me about this matter, but I can sure say that from what I've seen so far. Now, I have absolutely no intention to start a war with anybody on this thread or anywhere else. First because this is not the place, and second because I like to see different points of view from people I consider very good BB's investors/traders and like I said before, I have not seen a better thread around, nor on SI, or RB or IH or whichever board. I must also say that I stayed away from the political and moral discussion and that I simply skipped most posts on the thread about presidential stuff. Of course I had more than one reason. What I suggest is that you stay on your side for a day or two (while keeping posting) and then pick up the phone and have a little chat. I am sure you will realize that each other may not be as stupid as you think he is. Please do not hesitate to pm me if you believe we should talk about this over the phone, I would be more than glad to have a chat with you. Mickey and Joe, I assume both of you to be older than me, so consider this as a message from a younger person. As they say: "Truth comes out of the children's mouth" LOL. Whether you consider this post an offense or not, please do not post a public reply, but instead let us sort this out in private. Best of luck, -CyberJas
