I think there is a language issue in that MQ has a large English vocabulary and seems to delight in the odd twists and turns that allows when making a point. Might be hard to follow, especially as one post out of context, if English were a second language. I probably miss half of the embedded zingers myself. I must admit that while I enjoy his posts, a lot of the time I find he took 14 paragraphs and could have used 2.

That's also a problem with internet posts. There are so many parenthetical thoughts that could be explored in order to be clear to a wide group of people that it becomes a burden. Anyway, no idea what pushed my 'post' button today. Killing time.

If market goes up I'll short a little more. There is still IRA money going into the market for the next 2-3 weeks. If I needed to sell something, I'd be looking to sell it to those people at higher prices.

Edit: I just realized I had mentioned the long winded part in both posts and had to chuckle. I spent some time as a manufacturing engineer, writing assembly instructions for a small military radar, circuit board components, mechanical assemblies, coating, specs, documentation, all that nonsense.

Cut wire 2.5".
Trim insulation 3/8".
Insert capacitor CR3875a here.

No adjectives or adverbs, ever.
