Reg: 'Blah Blah Blah, I didn't really say that, I weasel-worded it too well to be nailed.' Not a quote, an interpretation :-) You said 600, unadjusted, and it's 200, unadjusted. Off 200%. Any prior price levels or whatever being irrelevant, since this is the closest your highness has ever come to being specific, except about your own intelligence, or the lack of it in others. >>>"I left it up to you to be able to discern the difference" If you never said buy or sell your opinions don't really count. Reality. People have to buy and sell, at particular times, for particular amounts. Advisers who have nothing specific to say about that are nearly valueless. Reality. People who don't have the cohones to be very specific and let it be exposed when they are wrong also don't need to be considered. Reality. >>> Do not try and compare us, I will be offended. You're a green kid, whose reach far exceeds his grasp. I'm not. Sorry if that comparison causes offense. Really. >>> it rubs me the wrong way. I'm devastated. Really. >>> This use to be, by far, the best thread on SI. Now it is just a bunch of bickering MSFT bashers. Because the gang of you who used to cheer on illegal and unfair practice, who couldn't tell the difference between innovation and cooptation, have mostly had to shut up, due to being proven wrong. And because you were hurting the MSFT cause. So, your friends all went away. And hey, we mostly bicker with you now, so what's the harm in that? You certainly like to argue with everyone. I assumed it was your hobby. Not that the rest of us were all right, particularly on Java. But we have the flexibility to be wrong and psychologically survive it and learn from it. Something you need to learn to do if you are to progress beyond your current profile. Ta Ta, Chaz
