<<I know how you feel..S-I feeds my compulsive behavior and I hv been trying to not log on much.Not the same as it was a yr or so ago..Lots of pain and grief<esp mine>. I wish you luck and like you I will ck in once in a while....>> I think alot of people echo those same statements.....the market is simply a pain in the A$$ to watch.....very frustrating.....and of course reading all the doom and gloom doesnt help either.

Thanks, man. You too. I just started a new job, so things are going to be hectic for me for a while. While I was out of work, some days I'd spend the whole time on SI, instead of pounding the pavement. That's compulsive. I like my new position, BTW. I like being around younger people a lot more than hearing a bunch of old men talk about their bad backs. Despite the best efforts of people like you (and there are still a lot of them), SI just isn't as interesting as it once was, in my opinion. There are exceptions, of course, but several people I had bookmarked just aren't around any more. And, frankly, Boplicity's absence hasn't helped in that regard. Still, there are a lot of interesting folks on these threads, and they have insights and provide informative links from all corners of the world. That's valuable to me. So I'll be around; just not 'round the clock. Sometimes I ramble. I used to be a writer, so this is therapy for me. Take care. PB
