<OT> Yahoo

You know, I never could understand why those folks chose the name "Yahoo". If you read Gulliver's Travels, you will remember that the Yahoos are degraded, stupid, hominoids (ruled by the noble Houyhnhnms, a race of horses with human reasoning powers & virtues).

Well, in the event, Yahoo has attracted quite a few Yahoos. Although I do not post there, I do read some of the threads regularly. The one advantage of Yahoo is that all sorts of stocks that are overlooked on SI have active message boards over there.
