Thank God, now we can save bandwith. His young disciples at SD are claiming this is the rally he has called for and are piling in with fists full of...mortgage money I presume. This could get really ugly.

John,

That's a pretty astounding turnaround for action. It's been my experience with a brief look at YHOO that anyone can say anything at anytime, as YHOO mgmt care only about pageturns and customers. YHOO's board lets people swear and badger others with impunity.

That's why I like SI. Very professional.

I didn't see Slider's offending posts, so I can't comment, but no matter. I personally didn't see him as being a problem, he was easy to ignore.
