<<Thank you Dave, It's to bad Milehigh left too, I know him well, very up standing and good source of information. There is world outside the QCOM thread, many investors on SI have it together. The family Q should be color blind, and welcome them as long as they are civil. You all might learn something along the way. So be nice and open minded.>>

Good points, agree with both of you. Perhaps all I can add to what you've said is that it works both ways; we've seen some *oldtimers* tell newcomers to take a hike and we've also seen some new faces pop in and tell *oldtimers* who are known with certainty (by some) to be experts in CDMA and in tight with the day to day information flows at Qcom to *go learn something about the company before you post*. Well, some of those *oldtimers* knew about Qcom, the technology and its potential at a very detailed level before the vast majority of those on this board, me included, had even heard of Qcom or CDMA. If I've learned anything on SI, it's that the most valuable thing to do when joining a new thread is to first seperate the wheat from the chaff, poster-wise (appreciate the analogy, JMD).

Reminds me of one of my favorite bumperstickers I've seen over the years:

Here's wishing a fine & dandy weekend to all. ...Tim
