Personally, I don't care. I see nothing wrong with the site, or the pictures. I don't think it indicates we are dealing with "clowns" or immature individuals. Or more precisely - it's irrelevant. What matters is whether they can deliver. I'm sure all of us are familiar with the phenom of guys who are dorks, immature etc., but great at their chosen specialty - programming, networking, whatever. And I know plenty of "respectable" suite wearing fat-cat broker sleazeballs. Appearances can be, and are deceiving. After all, what we want from these guys is their talents in programming and setting up a brokerage - not their "respecability" or ability to make great suits in the front office. I judge them by performance. What matters to me, is how well Datek serves my interests as a trader. OK, that's my strike for tolerance today :) Peace. Morgan
