Nothing backhanded about my compliments at all. Just stating what one`s perception could be. After reading stock message boards for 7 years now I came to the realization awhile ago that there many times are some very sharp people out there that post great things for awhile and then disappear after the stock makes a run, or as in this case, crashes. I have no doubt that oftentimes these people are boiler room plants, posting here for the sole purpose of driving up the stock. While I can see how my post may have offended you, believe me it was more about finding out a little bit more about you, maybe to help just give myself a little bit more assurance, and possibly other readers here also. I think most posters come to agora to get away from the sheeplike mentality at RB, where multiple posters supposedly fawn over a guy that has spewed nothing but lies. If that mentality seeps over here then this board becomes worthless.

You, yourself, have to admit that, if you take a step back and look at the scenario, it may raise eyebrows with your sudden departure after Higgins. My thoughts were that maybe you were so bummed out after Higgins that you needed a break from posting. I could understand that. All I`m saying is that sometimes we need to see the face behind that computer. And while I respect any kind of need for privacy that you have, I was just trying to learn a little bit more about you.

I hope I have redeemed myself with you. I would rather quit posting than have the board suffer any loss of your postings. You really do have great DD, but then, I`m pretty sure you know that.

Can I buy you a beer at the shareholders meeting?
