Metsin, your GAME isn't funny, as you found out. This isn't paranoia, "dude", or if it is, the SEC, the Attorney General of New York, the NASD, and lately "Business Week" and "Money" magazine and others in the last two weeks have really "bought into it", too. If manipulation continues and it keeps getting exposed, it's clear that a whole lot of people are going to leave the Markets. That won't do anybody any good, will it? So is this tiny thread doing the wrong thing by talking about it? Heck no, we're not even threatening the crooks. The number of people who see this thread is nothing compared to those reading the latest issues of "Business Week", "Money", "WSJ", or watching the Evening News or Stock News shows like CNBC or "Moneyline". We're trying to stay ahead of the curve for our own investing protection. We're trying to do our little part to help bring out and help stop manipulation, too, but part of the reason for this thread is also to understand how to navigate through rough waters and have better investing success until the Market is more cleaned up. Will it ever be cleaned up totally? Of course not, big money will also create vice. But we can all do our part to help bring it to the attention of others and clean things up. Apathy sucks and solves nothing.

conspiracy theorists unite...you have nothing to lose but your sanity! There goes that mental health thing again. You know, you people always calling into question people's mental states makes me wonder. Why the fixation on mental health all the time? Why all this concern? It is really weird, for lack of a better term. Hey amigo, so, you think New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer is a paranoid conspiracy theorist? Up to you, though we'll see, won't we? I for one don't think those Merrill e-mails were intercepted by SETI. Maybe you do?
