Well, that was fun, wasn't it? I guess we should be happy it's temporarily over $30 and that the week is over. These idiots really went after tech stocks with a vengeance this week. That's ok. They'll get theirs. They always do.

Would there be any possibility of the ordinary, rank and file, common unwashed members of the much abused "herd" starting our own National Association of Independent Investors---the NAII---to trade among ourselves???...That's where the money is anyway...Who the hell needs market makers anyway??...We will make our own market electronically....why give it to these brokerages so they can play God at our expense???...The only reason these people have so much money is that many of us still put our money in their hands as if they were some sort of Oracles...We ALL need to do our own thinking...The hell with middle-men!!!...If the SEC can grant a license to a group of brokerages, they should be just as receptive to granting the same privilege to a vast army of independent on-line investors...
