Dear Mr. Hanson, I don't quite see your problem with the Amigo thread. Yes some people get enthusiastic, perhaps overly, and also they seem to get quickly frustrated by the market. We've all had days like that. I've taken the purpose of the thread to be exposure to and discussion of stocks that may be ones that I should consider buying BUT, only after I do my own due diligence and if the stock fits my style of investing/speculating whatever you want to call it. If I buy it and it drops it's my own fault, and I'll take the credit also if it goes up. I've taken the thread that way from the first time I started reading it. Some stocks fit, some don't for me. Again, I just don't see your problem with the thread. The over/underenthusiastic posts can be taken with a little larger grain of salt than we should all take information from these threads with. Later, JMJ

Mr. Hanson, Geez, you only post all your negatives on this thread and the 56 thread! Interesting.......Geez maybe you should look at some other threads, and add you opinions elsewhere. I for one dont care what you think about novice investors, or who created a stock thread from last December, that is now extinct. <<<<<<<<When people speculate on what the retail investor will do in a prolonged downturn, I always express more pessimism than others, because I don't think the small guy has the stomach for pain.>>>>>>>> Who cares what you feel?...................... <<<<<<people start posting about the incipient "Bear" and proclaiming "This market is weird!" (both of which were posted today).>>>>>>>>>. I said it may be a green bear, remember?... If your mission here is to insult and ridicule, then get the facts right ok.....Thats a "GREEN <span> BEAR"......and believe it or not he is WEIRD!!!!!! <we also have fun on this thread.> Now on with your mission......and what is it anyway?
