I actually also owe you An eternal debt of gratitude. I have been meaning to post about this for some time. Indulge me for a little background first. In May 2001, I was strolling along a beach under the hot Miami sun with a couple good rum drinks under my belt from a dive called Wet Willies. I was walking along looking at Colombian and Brazilian women with perfect legs in their monokinis and suddenly a voice said: "you're in the wrong stocks asshole" (I may have told this story before but I wanted to lay the background). The next day I sold everything and bought PMs. Incidently the stocks I sold would have lost over 80% of their value by now. I was stumbling and bumbling around trying to get to know the newer PM stocks when I discovered the SSRI thread. That old SSRI thread was a classic. There was an incredibly high level of discussion. Amazingly everybody was cordial and could disagree without rancor or insults. You(vt=Wiley) jims and Crusty have all migrated over here, and there maybe others. Anyway I came across this post by Crusty: messages.yahoo.com To which I replied: messages.yahoo.com To which you wrote some posts which really changed my life: messages.yahoo.com My reply: messages.yahoo.com Followed by your rather prophetic reply: messages.yahoo.com This is getting too lengthy so I am going to continue on another post. I would like to also say that reading through that old SSRI thread (now a useless disaster) really brought back some memories. Literally I looked forward to reading it every evening when I came home.
