You all should lay back and cut a little slack to this new revolutionary blessing we as individual investors have received from
the technology geniuses of our free enterprise system


Gil,

1. If online trading is "new" and "revolutionary," why are other online brokerages so much more competent than Ameritrade, especially when Ameritrade claims to have been the first to offer online trading?

2. How much slack? A thousand dollars' worth? Two thousand? Are you suggesting that we ignore poorly executed trades?
