Kevin, in re your post to lisa.Lighten up with your attitude, lisa. and yet you felt free to tell me "it's obvious you haven't worked long hours under severe conditions". then you tell her, This crap is truely chasing people from the thread. Your bold assumptions in re my work history was a rather lengthy post, and posted smack in the middle of the morning trading day. Lisa knew that I have a day job that keeps me from posting during market hours. So I believe that lisa felt like I should have some kind of defender while people were still up and about. When I read your comments late that night, realizing that those comments had sat there all day during the busiest time of the tso thread, I was grateful to have had a defender.What's the point of battling the way you do and needing the last word like you always need? I left my opinion to Dwight. .... It's over. .... End of discussion on my part. That's fine if you don't want to say any more, but don't call it a discussion. You left your opinion with me. I responded later, and that was it. There was no response from you to anything I said to you. I promised many people yesterday that I would not allow myself to get into one of these petty fights. I won't. In the middle of the market day, you respond to something I said to someone else the night before. Is this supposed to be noble of you to jump in and accuse someone of obviously never having known long hours and hard work, and then not saying anything more when I presented some of my work history?You couldn't believe how many e-mails that I've received saying 'thank you' for posting what I did. whatever. guess I must have missed that post. Since I'm posting to you again, and since it's well after mkt hours, I'll reiterate, although you don't have to respond: my original opinion was and still is limited to this GM strike by the Flint, MI factories. Frankly Kevin, those strikers aren't going to be able to work up much sympathy from the American public, not after GM revealed what they get paid. Their $90K total avg compensation "plight" just isn't going to strum a sympathetic cord in mainstream America's heart. It's no wonder new cars cost so much.
