John - don't be so touchy. I didn't compare Pink to al Qaeda, you did. I talked about the cost of terrorism. Dollar cost. Chatter is good. Mere FUD is a crim tool. When I see trillions of dollars transferred from IRA's, etc. to the pockets of financial operatives, I perceive faith in the system deteriorating. I agree 9/11 was horrific. I also think that the Bhopal disaster that killed 3800 people was horrific. But that isn't what this site is about. IMHO it's a place to post investment ideas. I'm concerned that in this instance Pink was trying to pile on, add FUD. For a shortterm personal gain. And that's contemptible. I continue to post because I hope he will come back with investment grade reasons. And demonstrate the error of my ways.
