Richard... >> you working to continue where CL left off? << That's garbage and you know it. Fine, you want to personally attack me too, come on in. I won't back off and I won't make the mistakes that get people kicked off. There are some basic rules inherent on a thread like this. Some have been formalized by SI. One is you don't attack people personally. Another is you stick to the subject of the thread. Another is you are civil to others. No one is perfect. IMO, guys like Lou Green, Terry Christopher, Rock Doc., and others with "CL" at the top of the list, have paid their dues and if and when they break the rules, I can live with that. BTW, all of them are now completely or almost always gone. "CL" is around some, but even his frined Matt tends to be drifting away. When IPM was going up, everybody was for and defended "CL". He then became the brunt of the shorters and as the market crashed, the vindictive, the sore loosers, the poor loosers, the impatient took over. He has defended himself against all of the above and their attacks on both him and specific people in IPM. He has exposed people who's only objective was to drive down IPM's prices. I have never known him to provide information that wasn't avialble to people who would have taken the time, spent the money and had the persistence to go after it. Now, in terms of returning this thread to a group of people with common interests, being constructive and respectful of others, nothing has worked. A lot of people have quit posting. The e-mail underground has expanded. There are even other threads on other sites (passworded) that have started up. People are not putting up with the rudeness, insults, constant vindictive insults, etc. So when the good guys leave, the thread goes down hill. Which way do you want it Richard. The first time some solid rumors start up, everyobdy will start shouting for "CL", not Richard Mazzarella, or Joe Hartenbower. Joe PS... CB, you should have read this before I set it aside for several minutes. Geezeeeeeeeee
