John, OFF TOPIC Re: Why I am disappointed by your posts. In post # 17143 on Wed., Mar. 11, 98 you stated,{ in response to a post by Torben featuring the virgin entry on this post of the word " sophrosyne" }, " If the word means that people who post here regularly post too damned often and produce a thread that's almost entirely worthless for investment research { was this a concern of ancient peoples?} - then I agree.
At 4:00 a.m. on the same day , Wed. { in post # 17150 }, you told us , " I am not the least bit embarrassed at having contributed to this thread by NOT posting when, in fact, I had nothing significant to contribute by doing so."
At 2: 03 p.m., { in post # 17221 } also on Wed., you posted, " My suggestion would be , for the protection of all, to suspend all trading in LGND until everyone has taken the opportunity to read every single message that has been so graciously provided here for their benefit. Perhaps we could all receive some sort of certificate from you attesting to our accomplishment of this necessary activity."

My first question is, Is this what we have had to wait so long for, while you hesitated until you had something " significant to contribute", before you would post here ?"

My next question is, " How much longer will we have to wait, for something to equal in significance,your suggestion for a suspension in trading in LGND, as well as the certification you also seem to suggest ?"

I suspect you are capable of significantly more valuable suggestions.

Regards, Bernie

Thank you for your excellent example of an off topic post. Nothing like teaching by example!
