I have too many shares to sell. I have a tax deduction or something better. If I sold, what would happen to this 13 year hobby of mine? I do not need the money I have used here and I enjoy the interactions. Where else would I have had a chance to meet Dave Winsness, Whit Davis, and Kevin Kreisler (and wife)?
For the record, these are nice people very committed to succeeding that have been whip-sawed by events they cannot control; frankly I would feel like a heel if I abandoned them. That's what happens when you meet people and abstract specters becomes real flesh and blood. Their pain was palpable Tuesday and I respect that. So for better or worse, I am in.
