I skimmed through your very wordy post when all I had to do was read the last line. do you work for the hedge funds? You must be one of the CMKX believers so anything I say would be meaningless to you. And no I don't work for the hedge funds. Again I will reiterate.....I hope that IHUB will never do as you suggest with the members voting on which posts they deem to be "good posts". That would make IHUB just like Yahoo and that my friend is not a good thing.
