OT: ge jim
i respect your TA input and i agree with your assessment of jimlur--yet you couldnt be more wrong about tc.....and while i appreciate everything you bring to the board, tc has forgotten more than you (or I, or any of us) will ever know about how things work on the street......its not just about TA......its about having rapport with institutions, understanding order flow, understanding and personally knowing both the buy and sell sides, and understanding the relationship betw equity markets and interest rates/bond mkts, etc, etc........sitting on a merrill fixed income desk for 20+ years put him right in the middle of it all.......his input may not be able to be backed up by 'links,' but his opinion on most related issues is as good if not better than anyone else's.....imo
