gdr, in all fairness to cellhigh, i was just joking. he's done well, though he did seem to have a temper. heck, the bears may be making him rich. this is "do not short 101" in action. Skeeter, I have no clue if cellhigh does well. It really is not an issue to me. He has no clue as to how well I do. He is focused specifically on my AMZN short as though that is the only stock in which I have a position. He ison the attack as though I attacked him. I have not been as polite to him as others since I see he attacks others. Life is not just about who made the correct decision one one stock or any stock. I find the SI forum to be of help at times in the market. I use it to see other perspectives. I also use it as a form of entertainment. It is like a hobby to me. I would not spend as much time here as I do if I was not enjoying myself. I have made friends through SI. Some strictly virtual and some that I have talked with on the phone. This has occurred through various threads not AMZN alone. The thread becomes less enjoyable when there are frequent negative attacks and there are high tempers. Recently, this thread has had a lot of high tempers. I have no clue why cellhigh is so angry. He is making money and should be enjoying that and the exchange of ideas on this thread. This thread has become less enjoyable. It is like one needs to fight to survive. This is my way of enjoying the company of others. I also do that in real life. I seem to expect there will be adults on this thread. People with manners. People that are nice. There are many that are. Let me name a few and some are bulls and some are bears. I do not want oneyone I do not list to feel I left them out with intentions to do so. I just do not want to spend a lot of time on this post. People that are very nice and bulls too: Bulls William (class act by the way), Mark, Tom D, Bears James, Jan, Skeeter, Mike There are many others in both camps. cellhigh showing a temper shows lack of maturity. It shows he is too emotional about the market and apparently has difficulty making friends. It ruins the thread for many of us. Glenn
