Things should really pick up again next week when AV joins the ranks of the self-employed. Before you know it, he'll be smoking Cuban cigars, drinking imported scotch and chugging Pepto like Patrick and all the other full-time traders. Not sure what he'll do about the cat (gg). - Jeff

I guess it's a lull. I hope no one went bust on us. <e>

re: This Thread. duh. what most people already know is, Swaps is one of the least informative, cliquish, and self-absorbed threads on SI. Which is exactly why fewer people than ever post on here. They simply had enough of it. I quit posting for a while because there weren't any stocks I followed that were worth buying anymore, and nobody wants to hear that the market is about to come crashing down around their ears. People hear (read) what they want to. Words to the contrairy fall on deaf ears. Now they come seeking "pearls" in a time of crisis. What can be said? The "pearls" were given in August and September. If you didn't listen then, why would you listen now? -Kevin
