OT Funny to note the increase in useless chatter on this thread as the price climbs. Guess that's one of the prices we have to pay for Lucent becoming such a popular issue. Surely some of this "How are you today?," and "Grub...blah blah blah...grub...blah blah blah" crap can be taken to private messages, no? The whole issue has me hoping for a huge downturn just so some of these shorts get weeded out. Mark PS Any replies to this message should be made through private mail. If you'd like instructions on how to do this, go to the main SI page and figure it out from there. /OT

* OT * This is a Private Message: (only for you Sherry). Hey Sherry, have you noticed the increase in PMS level, (particularly the male type), when the price of Lucent gets volatile... I find it puzzling why all those serious "Buy & Hold nervous nellies" should ever bother reading SI.... If they are so convinced that... well, "Buy & Hold" is the greatest strategy on the investment Universe.... why should they care... after all, I would assume that "Buy & Hold" is for the long term... no ? (as in years). Why would they care, I mean they "know it all" and "they are always right". I guess this deserves one of those bright responses.... how you say? " DUH ? " As for me... well, I am only here for the beer.... "cluttering" the space of the pretentious; minds that get burned by small talk. Can't have fun mon. This is serious shit mon! Amazing too, such bright (!?) minds making assumptions about things they don't know a thing about! They speak with such authority. I think they are becoming delirious... they are insinuating the shorters are here.... I am not Canadian, so there, that eliminates that possibility. (of course, I can only speak for myself). _________________________ Edit..... OOOOPS, This was meant to be a Private Message.... hmm ? I wonder what happened, you know, I followed the instructions for: "How to send a private message", (so the pretentious ones do not get wild). By Arsenio Hawl. I think it was this McApple machine... I must invoke Computa, the goddess of black magic boxes, to see if I can erase this message....or maybe I should call Bill, (Gates, not Willy). Oh boy, the 15 minute window is over....now I really did it, they are going to get seriously mad at me for adding to the clutter.... oh no, guilt, guilt... I better get back to my voodoo.... (I have a voodoo doll for attorneys, PHD's and now I will add one for researchers), that will protect me from evil and other sundry rubbish. I say rubbish! Let them suffer and have them read it all.
