Brian and Gottfried, sorry for any name calling or insults today has been a sad day at AMAT. We lost many who deserved a better fate than they recieved so some frustration may have come out.

Gottfried and John,>>John, I was hoping we could get away from name calling - yet your post to Brian proved me wrong. I think your facts, if you simply present them, will speak for themselves.<< >It IS possible for intelligent people like you and Brian to differ, even when looking at the same picture.< I whole heartily agree. Are we conditioning SI site AMAT members to agree to disagree.<g> We have come a long way during the last two years on this site to be tolerant to others views even though we may disagree. I personally believe that opposite views force me to examine and reexamine my positions and hopefully assist me to make better decisions in my investments. Let's keep on adopting the posture to agree to disagree and not personalizing those with an opposite point of view. John, you have been appropriately spanked. <GG> Just my opinions. Paul V.
