>>BDAZ (fka or aka the oft emotionally departed BDaz on TMF)<< Eric you somehow got the wrong impression. Maybe I should take a moment to clear some things up. There was no emotion in my decision to stop responding to your posts on the MF board. I don't have all day to spend on multiple chat boards like you do. I prefer to limit my time to reading posts from posters proven to be adept in analysis, and engaging in debate where the class of the opponents prevents them from personal attacks. They choose to (sometimes brutally), but intelligently attack each others logic. You seem to prefer the school yard version of name calling and insults. This style is of course available to all, but takes no skill and after adolescence most choose not to partake. Mostly because they learned that when one resorts to personal attack in debate one is conceding their intelligence is not on par with the opponent. Just like in a grammar school yard, this insecurity and frustration causes the eventual attempt to bolster the argument with insults. Like the guy in the movie "Paper Chase" your data gatherings are very informative, but long term has proven your analytical skills (three years ago bullish on Nokia while promoting Tero and Orlowski's analysis on QCOM) are off, at least in this arena. In addition your rebuttal posts were pages long, laced with insults, gaping holes in logic, and spin that was way over the top. The more I pointed out these flaws the more insulting you would become. I considered it in the best interest of the board to stop responding to you. After reading your familiar boorish attack from last night (I thought this board was moderated against such) I look to continue this policy here, but I may periodically respond when your logic gets too curious. BTW: Your "Send in the Clowns" reference? The meaning of those lyrics from the last verse has been obvious to everyone (or most everyone) for decades. The actual meaning of those lyrics is that you suddenly realize that you are the clown. IE In your post you called yourself a clown. Was this intended?

<And if Slacker can't do that, you'll invent it.> Is this a private fight, or can anybody get in? I’m too excited to wait for an answer… Is this an ad hominem attack by Mr. Web Probity against the playful BDAZZ?! I’m shocked. Shocked! Some dastardly poster must have tweaked the nose of Mr. Probity during a solemn prayer to his god and benefactor. I demand to know whose temerity disturbed this sad and solemn priest, who sings still for Nokia’s soul. More will he do, but all that he can do is nothing worth, since his penitence comes after all, imploring his loyalties. (I’m stealing from Casa Blanca and butchering Henry V.) How does this scion of probity fall to the level of the great unwashed? Has he suffered the slings and arrows of outrageous posters? Did he take up arms against sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them on TMF? Oh, how the mighty have fallen!
