PW: If wishes were horses then beggars would ride!

On gloating? The product of a childish but nearly irrepressible human immunological factor: the "I Told You So" phage, which is triggered in response to the "you moron" virus or other forms of sickening influenca. Time & chicken soup are the best cures. I think the common cold will be cured first, personally.

The courage to buy? Needs only to be matched precisely with the courage to hold.

In this regard, as with everywhere else, the line between courage and foolishness is only measureable in retrospect. Foolishness is obvious, postmortem.

I am comfortable being judged in the harsh light of history. But I am not as courageous as you might think.

John.

PMS, the key word is "when everyone else is selling." Per this thread, not too many of the perma-longs seem to be selling although quite a few have disappeared.

Hey Gary, I know you're reading this.
