LG, we all have our opinions of boards & the people on them.... and you are right ... I have been around SI for a few years. I haven't followed the growing bitterness between yourself and others ... mainly, I guess, because thats not why I read my chosen SI threads and people whose opinion I value. I consider you one of the 'good guys' from SI of old... yet have seen you alienate a lot of others who I hold in similar esteem. Somethings not quite right is it ???. At this point my only reasonable wish is that you and the others I know maintain distance and refrain from personal comments about each other. A far better wish is that you would come over to this thread with some input and market discussion occassionally and have some market exchanges with the people here. I was about to say we're all reasonable people ..... but it brought back memories of the same line used by Jack Nicholson as the US President in Mars Attacks ..... just before he was impaled by a false hand he had just shook ... LOL. On that note ... Best regards Stephen

<but no one on this thread complained of the insults hurled my way> Not entirely accurate. It was easy to miss, but actually I believe there were three different posters who defended you and asked a return to topic during one recent mud slinging. One was me, the other I recall was RU2, sorry I don't recall the last. I would like to respectfully point out that it is unfair to expect others to perform this task and the overall silence should not be construed as endorsement of the insults. These threads are the schoolyard for trading knowledge. Personal conflicts hinder the ability to learn and foster information trading relationships which these threads are built on. You must know, LG, that there are many MDD lurkers who do look up to you and have gratitude for the work you have shared. Those who appreciate you aren't going to be swayed much by inane remarks thrown your way. Those who have had conflict with you in the past aren't going to be changed through your attempts to defend yourself. My very best suggestion and in my heart I believe it to be very much true, you should focus your energy towards those who remain steadfast and simply willing to respect your thread header (and I think it is probably as simple as that) on MDD rather than remaining set on answering those whose main gaol is to provoke you and get your goat. It is a futile battle which can never be won. You already have a terrific vehicle with your own indelible stamp on it (MDD) with a great core of knowledgeable contributors. I know because I am one of the beneficiaries of that knowledge. Just get in your vehicle and drive it. GGG. The rest of the stuff just takes care of itself. Believe me, it is so. Best Regards, Eichler
