Howdy Pals, Marshall, thanks for the wonderful link about the history of The Alamo. I read the details with fascination, but as always liked those old pictures best. Here's a link giving details of the tricks and maneuvers of The Enemy Who Keeps An Orderly Market, on our Stock Alamo so close to home: dimgroup.com Was especially interesting to read how the MM's are put Between A Rock And A Hard Place constantly....unable to refuse Buy Orders if they don't have the shares or they'll soon go out of business. Leaves 'em no choice but to short sell then walk it down to make it up. All because they know that if they don't fill the order, the next time The Big House will give the business to the MM who agreed to fill it and not to the one who refused. EUREKA!!! So that's why the dips last longer than the rallies!..... Have a Great Sunday Waiting For The Next Train.... 909s 2U, Joan

Marshall, Uncle Sam, gave me my first medical training at....you guessed it Ft. Sam Houston, Texas (home then of The Combat Medic School). It is not far from the Alamo. Seems only fitting as brave men served at the Alamo and medics, well anyone who has ever worn a uniform knows about medics. Must be the water there. I have visited The Alamo several times while stationed there but, IMO the city should of left more open space around The Alamo. It is still a beautiful place anyway, full of history. I spent some time when I wasn't studying down on the River Walk which is a beautiful place also. I knew some great medics that came out of Ft. Sam. I have never tried to look any of them up, I'd rather just remember them as some fun guys drinking some beer down on the River Walk and not know what happened to them. 909 BLUE
