As far as you comments about this board being monitored, I have no doubt that the former dwellers do not appreciate the fact that we have continued a calm and deliberative discourse here... I took some time on the weekend to read quite a postings leading to the creation of the Mod Porch...quite frankly, the more I read the more I realized how unfair and biased everyone was against Bonnie...not to say that Bon didn't have her days when she was a little much (sorry Bon!) but certainly she did nothing more than voice a dissenting opinion to the majority's way of thinking...what was particluarly galling was the community standard mantra...a true community has a place for all of its members... The Mod Porch is now infested with right-wing zealots who apparently tolerate anti-Semitism until a light was shone it...kind of like of cockroaches, they usually scurry when you the flick on the kitchen light... BTW, I am working on my top ten list for best picks of 2000 by the Leader himself...I don't know how many posts I have read where he has systematically reduced his projection for everyone of his stocks and the NAZ in general... The truly secure individual, who has an ounce of integrity would come out and say, listen folks, I am not perfect and I have been wrong, dead wrong on this market for months now, I hope none of you have suffered because of it...I am waiting for him to stop prognosticating as he indicated he would if the NAZ wasn't at 4500-5000 by year end...hell, if it gets back to 3000 he'll be lucky...
