<<<Off Topic>>>Hi SargeK, My post to Razor was a joke not an insult, and he took it as a joke, not an insult. I had seen from his posts that he would enjoy that joke, or I wouldn't have posted it. He and I both come from cultural groups which engage in self-mockery on the subject of inbreeding. --------------------------------------- You seem to be a person who believes what is said here measurably effects stock price, and you seem also to believe that those who post messages here do so with the purpose of effecting stock price. You are sometimes hostile toward those who express opinions counter to yours. You seem emotional about your stock positions and opinions. When you attack/insult those with opinions differing from yours, you aren't going to help your stock, imo, but you may discourage someone from posting who has something valuable to contribute to the thread. That might cost me money, and I don't like it. When threads turn into cheering sections, many of the people with worthwhile things to say leave. They get sick of the suspicion and hostility. I don't want to see that happen here. It's not a football game; we're not here to cheer the team and boo the shorts. We're trying to make money. I'm interested in your opinions and your reasoning, but I wish you could leave out the hostility. regards, diana
