I think since you have been blessed with this nice winning streak, I think it's about time you paid back some of the money you owe Bert. You owe that much to him.

You guys really need to quit bitching about him. He is actually featured again in this month's Trader Monthly. He was reported to have made 15 to 20 million in 2004. That's right, while ET was starting 30 threads a week about how you can't make any money in this market, he made 20 million...
