Morning Diana and Patricia...

Diana - sorry that I wasn't there in your hour of need. Counselor's need to sleep too.

Patricia - I think you'll find that on occasion the women on this thread have been "accused" of having cojones... and big ones too!

The whole atmosphere of this thread is very congenial. This talk about non-informative posts could have erupted into a seriously negative conversation except for the good relationships and thread tone that has already been established. We even treat the folks that sometimes happen along and challenge our belief in this stock with a gentle nature. If you think Norman Stone was handled roughly yesterday, I invite you to go to any YAHOO board and read 10 posts. You will better appreciate the bond that is here. For the most part, Norman's comments were handled with humor not attacks.

Scotto stated it very eloquently, IMO, when he said,

"The uniqueness of this board is the marvelous mixture of knowledge, confidence in the company and the personal blend of personalities who know how and when to enjoy themselves while keeping their eye on the prize."

Perhaps, we have driven folks from purchasing the stock because of our constant banter. However, some folks have stated that it is this thread that tipped the balance to purchase the stock.

And Diana, your comment about the information thread being for newbies is one that I can certainly go along with. We have not been very diligent about making sure pertinent posts get there, though sandstuff has certainly tried. But, we need to do better. Mark C. has even volunteered to post MUST READ posts.

In the end, we all have individual control over our own mouse buttons. We have a pretty good idea already who those are that post mainly DGIV info. We can also get a feel from the header as to what the topic is. IMO, its really just a matter of exercising your freedom to choose.
