James, Farris, A few "kind of" off-topic thoughts at large. It's late. The concept of honesty and consistent believability on SI or in the market as a whole is a rare commodity indeed. However, as it was pointed out to a little girl named Virginia over 100 years ago, this does not mean such things do not exist. Indeed Virginia, they do. I have been criticized as being naive at my age for believing that there are people who will defend their dreams and noble intentions with the fervor of Quixote against his windmills. In spite of the occasional pain this has brought over the years, I have no regrets and absolutley no desire to change my beliefs. It's easy to become jaded from the omnipresent media spin. The sincerity of the human spirit has been bastardized and then merchandised to make us cry on cue on TV and in the movies. It's become increasingly difficult to glean the "heartless" motivation to move us for profit, from the "heartfelt" intention for the pure mission of creating and sharing the collective result. In a forum such as this we have been taught to scrutinize. It's a learned behavior based on our own perceptions. When something of pure intent appears, many tend to get quite dark if even a tiny cloud crosses the sun. Some of the posts I've read on other threads have been absolutely cruel and vile. I'm glad this DCI thread is not subject to (and has demonstrated it will not allow) such disrespectful and self-defeating behavior. From what I've read and have been told, I feel all the people from Joe Murphy down are making a sincere business and "people" effort to make DCI a collective success for their families, their employees, and their shareholders. Until there's concrete evidence to believe anything else, I'll trust my what my heart and my head is telling me. All I can say to others is the timeless "To thine own self be true." Sometimes the brightest truth is right in front of our eyes. It's easily obscured if we're too involved looking backwards in judgement, missing the joy of opportunity trying to greet us with open hands. JMHO.... Onward, George
