"GIVE ME A BREAK'' ! ...''attacks'' & new threads... Are you people living in reality ? ''Attacks ? C'Mon - the skin can't be thaaaaaaaat thin can it ? One last time people.... I said: << "My ''taunts'' are tongue in cheek here Luke, you are obviously a bright guy; but - you have to give us more than some psychobabble the world is ending...">> How many "<VBG>'s'' do I have to insert for you guys to get the ''jest'' ? Satirical references to Eye of Newt & Halloween - and these guys want to start a ''new thread'' ? Gimmie a break.... it's not about ''flamming'' - folks; there wasn't even a spark here - let alone a flame... It's about ignorance and unsupported alarmist views going unchallenged. Over at the - ''Jim Jones - Just drink the Kool Aid- Stupid'' thread.... they don't like ANYONE questioning their comments OR especially; asking them to explain anything ! It's about - I said it, don't question it & especially; no matter how RIDICULOUS it is - NEVER make fun of it ! - Blasphemy I say ! - These guys take themselves waaaaaaaaay toooooo seriously ! ***************************************************************************** Is this not what LT said ? "Unfortunately, I think the drillers will likely see at least 50% to 80% losses from here till the ultimate bottom." Now, that was - 50%-80%, from HERE - I'm not dyslexic am I ?* From: Lucretius Taurus Thursday, Oct 29 1998 1:11PM ET Reply # of 4933 If any of you own any longs in the mkt that are US equities other than Gold stocks.... I think this is your LAST chance to get out before a SIGNIFICANT decline. Exit quickly. You will not have time to exit when the next downleg starts. Please, do so now. If we break thru this level, we're probably going to new highs, so you'll have time to jump back in, but the risk right now is for a drop. IMO -Lucretius "Mkt can and will fall 1000 points in a day. Circuit breakers hit at 800 ponts and we close for an hour then we reopen and can fall another 800 points before we close for 2 hrs, then we can reopen and fall another 900 points before closing for the day....that's a grand total of 2500...anything is possible, and my guess is the next decline will not give you time to short (or more likely the initial decline will be so great that most feel we are oversold and won't risk buying VERY expensive puts or shorting) '' now; those weren't EXTREME - remarks were they ? - Of course not...* ...."trust me, this call is correct. We will pancake VERY soon." ..."I think we just capped this fat bitch off w/ a blast off by John Glenn and one more feeble run for the DOW just for good times sake.'' ****************************************************************************** Now; for the ''Zealot'' Police - tell me with a straight face (if you can keep from falling off your chair laughing) who has the most extreme views - be they Bear or Bull ? Has anyone seen me yelling BUY or even SELL, for that matter ? No; I've said this is a ''Traders'' market; don't be afraid to take profits off the table, the upside surpasses the downside - and greatly so... etc. and I'm soooooo Bulllllish that those poor lost souls; have to go start their own drilling thread ? Give me a freekin break.... Perhaps; what the really want; quite obviously, - is for their ludicruous, pompous exercises in mental theoretical flatulence - to go unchallenged. The demi-Gods want their Entrail Reading & Market Voo Doo Prognistications to go unchallenged and their ''Inside Source'' info - "Sell now ! - It's gonna be too late to get out !'' Yelling Fire in a Theatre Mentality - Zombieism, to go unchallenged; just because - THEY said it was so... Who are these clowns anyway ? For the life of me; I never read an intelligent well thought out analysis with a step by step explanation of their scenarios... no economic principal, no statistics, no supporting analysis by anyone, never anything specific...? It's all ways ''Inside Sources'' told me, or my Chicken Beaks & Entrails tell me...that the Flying Double Ninja Hammers are pointing to a Cow Jumped over the Moon Double Saucer Cup formation....??? C'Mon .....does anyone out there still have both feet firmly anchored on Earth ? Bull or Bear, Long or Short - (and there is room for both)...you have NOT seen me ''jumping'' on any sell or short postings here; I have sold here more than bought of late ??? Time for the ""Posting Police'' to deal with the more important issues in life; like - Who killed Kenny ? I say ---> GET A LIFE !!!

Once again, Slider... get your facts straight. the Fed cut rates from around 6% to 1% after the '29 crash. The DOW proceeded to lose 95% over the next couple years. Short sellers who fought the Fed, pounded it into the ground. Similarly, Tokyo cut rates form around 6% to 1/2% and their mkt went from 39000 to a low of 13000 a few weeks ago (which i agree w/ Barton it has probably seen a bottom) I post on this thread to drop a note (a bullish one mind you!) And I am instantly attacked by your childish antics. You either need to grow up or see a counselor concerning these aggressive feelings, or go join the circus as a clown. (G) Like I said, I see one last selloff in the drillers to new lows before their new bull mkt begins. I hope I am wrong for your sake. -Lucretius
