bob. stop trying to make analogies about analogies. If you don't understand what I am saying by now about your participation on a stock thread's discussion, you never will.
You want to post and participate, and you're going to rationalize it in whatever way it takes for you to feel comfortable about that. You shouldn't be on a stock thread at all, (on this site) except for the job you are here for. If you continue to interject your thoughts about any particular stock no matter if they are the greatest thing since sliced bread or the dumbest thing that ever a man verbalized, IMO you are going to kill this site. Sooner or later you will alienate everyone. But like I said, if you're right, then you will truely have a better grasp on human nature than I. but if I am right, then what? Stop and think about that. Just keep in mind what you would do, think, feel, if that umpire at the ball game did anything more than just 'call the game'.
