Jim Black. Some OT/ Not to worry Jim. At age 700, Yoda plays soccer in slow motion.<lol> Stopped playing league soccer in my mid-50s. Just a little skill work out with the kids now and then. AND smart enough NOT to try much 1 on 1 with them anymore !!!<G> Hell, sometimes when they're really "in the zone"? Either one can give the MSL pro a good game of one v one. Got to get video that one of these days. Actually, the best part is when they do push the pro a bit. To come back and score himself, he does some absolutely fabulous stuff!! You know, it's one thing to go to a game at Crew Stadium when you're sitting 100-200 yds away. Standing 25 feet away? It's incredible how fast, skilled and flashy top pros are. For baseball Dads', picture having Chipper Jones or Jeter working out individually with you son once a week. What happened to Slider is the result of a small close knit clique who've consistently been on the wrong side of the major sector and market calls Slider and I have made. And because we've had the utter temerity to frequently remind them of "the error of their ways"<g> they're into a LT vendetta against us. We are both permanently banned from posting on High Tolerance Plasticity. And any time they can find a few comments on this thread, to blow out of proportion, several of them go on a private messaging campaign to lobby the SI thread monitors to suspend the posting and messaging privileges of big bad Slider or Isopatch. So far, I've just been lucky. As George Cole has correctly pointed out on several occasions, Slider is probably the best poster on SI. Although my trading/investing style is somewhat different from Slider's, the different analysis tools and/or methodolgy we often use is a great strength when it comes to posting on this thread. That's because at critical market pivot points AND with ongoing trend evaluation, our conclusions support one another. I consider him a first rate mind and respect his work. And we share a common disdain for BS and vindictive sore losers.<G> On the other extreme, I've not the time or the interest to even read the inconsequential verbiage let alone post tit for tat with inconsequential hangers on who've been know to occasionally show up here (en mass) to bash me and disrupt this excellent thread. IMO, most of this 'human cannon fodder' will be blow out of active trading by the time this Bear Market is over. And the few who remain will increasingly be seen for what they are: Wanna be/also rans who can't post REAL TIME and hit either the long ball or for a good batting average.<G>. Good to hear from you Jim. Glad you liked my post. Don't be a stranger. As far as I'm concerned your comments and contributions are always welcome here. Best, Isopatch
