5. You appear to assume that I am unaware of politische matters of which I am overabundantly informed and aware. You and BullBear are proficient at telling me things I already know (regardless of my opinions on same). It seems a bit CONdescending, butt I 'spose my posts may seem that way to y'all (and all y'all) as well, so I withhold any protest other than noting the phenomenon here.
This is sort of an edit since I misdirected my reply to Janice in error due to her C&P of your comments above.
Going forward please leave me out of the conversation. And I apologize if you didn't like my political comments. At this stage of my life I'm too set in my ways and see no reason to change. As I understood this board it was focused on stock scams in the penny arena then slowly devolved into other areas including politics. And many of the political posts and off topic posts I disagree with or are too time consuming to comprehend as I noted in replying to one of your recent posts.
About the only thing we ever agreed on was pencils and baseball and the former is questionable but like both to each his own.
In closing sorry about your friend and what he is going through. Cancer is a horrible disease and we are coping with a relative who is dealing with it as well. Suffice it to say I don't like the direction the new administration is taking in cutting funding for medical research. But that is a topic for another board.
