I've been doing a little detective work, and it seems
that one of the messages that was posted here recently
has been removed. Look at message 810

To: hephephooray ( ) (Trial Member)
From: hephephooray (Trial Member)

See those empty parentheses after the first "hephephooray"?
Usually they contain the number of the message the
responder is responding to, a reference to the message
that prompted the response. In this case, there is no
message to refer to, because (apparently) it has ceased
to exist. It has been voided into the ether. It no longer is.
I learned a long time ago on the Flag thread to respond to
my own messages because they were such transitory things,
and thus leave a record of the selective memory that Flagsters
want to project on potential investors. Let's see, where
have attempts been made previously to expunge entire passages of
history or entire lives, to apply white-out to unwelcome
or unsettling news? Anyone? Anyone? That's right, the best
example of attempting to control the news existed not too long
ago in a country known as Canada, where a Flag press release
was withheld from people until one brave individual published
it line by line by line, thus giving the world a more well-rounded
view of the stock the unfortunate few were invested in or potentially
going to invest in or potentially going to divest themselves of.
Because, after all, a stock must stand on its own merits, not
the controlled perceptions of these merits, paltry though some
of them may be. Say hello to this response, everybody, because
soon enough you'll be saying goodbye to it.
