Oh Curly, just relax...

I cited your name because you were always one of the most active posters and, by far, the biggest proponent (sp) of this stock. Yes, I thought it was odd you stopped posting during the big decline. Whatever...I knew being a "new" poster and just mentioning your name would bring on some sort of negative response. Well, you gotta be new sometime. I have actually been reading every message since Sept 1997 or so, just trying to learn.

Am I mad I bought at 6 and sold at 7 1/2. A little. Am I mad I sold Dec 17 1/2's, not really. Lets not count the other time I sold calls for profit, bought puts for gains, and the other times I bought, only to sell for a little higher before a big decline.

Yes, I make plenty mistakes. Just lost a bunch this week in fact. I state my trades because I don't care if people see my mistakes. I like when others state what they are doing and why because it helps me learn. And I welcome everyone's post from Zeev_Hed to Acid_man.

Oh yeah, my latest post was merely stating that there seems to be a lot of euphoria all the sudden, just like last April. Maybe it is warrented this time, maybe not. Me, well I have given up on this stock being the Big Kuhuna. I'll take my small, small, profit and maybe re-enter later.

Curly, I hope you and everyone else that has been long this stock gets that $200/share. If I'm called out, I'll just take a rest. It will be nice to have the 'ole Cymer taken off my plate for a while. Sorry if I offended you (somehow?). You seem to be the sensitive type, so I will not mention your name again.
