Well, maybe a little crass, but yes.
My regrets...
As to the WTF statement - well, was a little surprised at the intolerance to some off-topic discussion. Everyone brings a little something to the investment table, and over time, we get to see a sliver of who people are with the OT posts. I always enjoy (in moderation) OT posts that promote some thing, or type of unity to the reading community.
For a second - I saw too much sorrow in my adolescent and teen years, and questioned alot about those who I was always told ``watch over me``, but didn`t...did equate well to maintaining a belief system. Time has worn that away, I have received many gifts over the years that have renewed my inner faith and beliefs. I can see where in order for a society to remain strong with identity, unified religion must be a cornerstone. Don`t believe it?...if you`re got time on your side, it will become clearer to all in about 10-20 years.
I don`t have an issue with OT posts, in moderation, and as long as the subject has a basis for good and value. We all get a glimpse into the posters character and their other interests besides PTSC. After all, I plan on breaking bread with quite a few of you on the 28th, and am looking forward to meeting and talking with all of us as people first, then as investors, second.
Let`s enjoy the ride.
