I don't know Jeff, my head is not in it right now...I do not see how people can live with this trash Windows OS.

F'ing thing

I was copying a NN Model's chart to a .bit file to send to my son's server so he could put it on a website. I accidentally opened Internet Exploder, shut it off....and the machine locked. No way to shut it off.

I hit the reset button and Win98 won't start now. This Neural Net program is licensed to only run on one machine so I cannot use it; the database I use is only on that machine, my historical data is all on that machine...

So I can't even throw the damn thing out the window.

Although I am real F'ing close.

Well that only took an hour to fix, I guess I'm getting good at this, perhaps I can get a job as a technician.

Upcrash examples....I know I have seen them, I guess it all depends on what you consider a buying climax. The word "upcrash" is used pretty informally to denote a sudden buying/short covering frenzy.

I suppose if one presumes that Oct 97's selloff of 554 or the two day string of Sept 30/Oct 1 98 which combined for losing 448 points on the Dow were mini-crashes, then one can make a case for October 15 1998 as an upcrash....the Dow advanced over 330 points and had an intraday high up 378.41.

But generally speaking I believe "upcrash" is just a loosely defined term which means something like,

"Holy Smoke!!! Did you see that!?!?!?!?"
