Well, here's some objective information. No, I don't have any about the stock - there isn't much of that to be had. But Terry T suggested that I "have too much time on my hands" and I "need to get a life". Let's apply an objective test to this assertion, OK? Let's have a little exercise in the disparity between objective information that anybody can verify and claims made by thread participants. It's a trivial and unimportant example, but perhaps this test can tell us something about other "facts" that have been espoused here. I've adjusted times to each individual's local times, to give some perspective. These are the times of posts made by myself, Terry T and PartyTime to the NETZ thread over the past two days: Jon Tara Pacific time 18'th ------ Morning 6:47AM 7:13AM 8:08AM 8:52AM Evening 9:06PM 19'th ----- Morning 6:58AM 8:32AM Late Evening 11:32PM 8 posts total Terry T (unknown time zone, will assume Eastern and correct this later if wrong) 18'th ----- Morning 9:37AM 10:14AM Afternoon 2:12PM 3:52PM 5:15PM Evening 8:50PM 11:20PM 19'th ----- Late Night 1:49AM 1:52AM 1:53AM Morning 9:30AM 9:34AM Late Morning 11:32AM 11:42AM Afternoon 1:05PM 1:40PM Late Night 11:50PM 17 posts total PartyTime Eastern time zone 18'th ----- Late Night 2:01AM 2:04AM Late Morning 10:38AM 11:02AM 11:03AM 11:13AM Evening 9:48PM 9:59PM 10:22PM 10:39PM 19'th ----- Morning 9:43AM 10:10AM 10:18AM 10:24AM 10:33AM Afternoon 12:41PM 1:33PM 17 posts total ====================== Now, I shouldn't need to put this into Excel and draw a chart to illustrate who needs to get a life, and who, in fact, is hanging-out on this thread at all hours. Certain parties should just drop this subject, as the objective evidence doesn't support their assertions, or at least shows that they are significantly more "guilty" than the accused...
