spitsong--I'm sorry man...I was one of those speculating about it, but OwlEars convinced me to hold tight in the end.

On the other hand, I'm sure *something* will happen to cause a temporary drop sooner or later (perhaps another BS report like the 'iTunes sales are dropping' story) to give you a chance to get back in.

Thanks, spitsong

I knew it was you that made the observation about Steve and his family being there, and what it might mean.

Frankly, my great respect for your trading record spooked me a lot. After the fast two point drop which followed, I thought, son of a gun, PT sure has the guts to pull the trigger, maybe he's right. Then while a few of us were seemingly quite unnerved, owlears made what I considered her astute comment that Steve wouldn't pick this moment to grandstand his retirement.

Sorry you cut your gains, but knowing you, you'll make it back another day. :<)

I sincerely hope that others were smarter than me...

Smart or not, I'm right behind you and exited this morning. Longest I've held a position in quite a while.

And now that it appears political motivations are being disguised as righteous indignation and "community standards", it's probably time for me to slink off again.

Cheers all.
