Carl, once last summer I got a warning from Jill, and it shook me right to my boots. If you're sitting down, I'll tell you what it was;

Marcos, we must all endeavour to keep the threads focused.

... how about that, eh. I still feel tingly all over just thinking about it. Then another time she requested me to post in English. Me enoj‚ mucho. I meant to call the ACLU about that, but forgot. Que ser , ser .

If we could entice Larry T. Sherwood and his elk over here, the huge usefulness of threads like Kahuna and Mohan would be saved the trouble. I, and others I'm sure, would be willing to take his side on certain points if he could show a little reasonableness and contrition, and failing that, would be willing to perform the last rites for him.

Don't know about steve or CPQ, I don't do tech stocks due to a complete ignorance of anything electronic. My good friend, a techie who invests in GICs only, says the ignorance would be an advantage, but I dunno, it's just not a thing of my generation. You see, I fibbed to Jack Clarke yesterday, I'm not really twelve, actually when I was born everybody who used The Wheel still had to pay royalties to Throg the Inventor. So I like gold, and banks.

Did you get into that forestry project? ........... cheers ........ marcos

>>P.S. Why did steve rename himself "hpeace"? Does it have
anything to do with CPQ preannouncing near-losses?<<

bilow, steve changed his name before the bad news. are you kidding? he has no shame ;-)

he was saying cpq would make their number - all the way up until the day before cpq said they may not make any number ;-)

i posted the link on burke's thread about 3 days ago. it was funny :-)
