    Mel Gibson's father.... Posted on Sun, Mar. 09, 2003 Associated Press NEW YORK - Actor Mel Gibson's father isn't shy about admitting his belief in conspiracy theories. Hutton Gibson, an 84-year-old activist and author, says he believes the World Trade Center was destroyed by...

    Abus Abbas caught!

    I just woke up, put on the news, and I absolutely could not believe what I read on the ticker going by on MSNBC. The PLO wants the release of this POS? Did I read that right? Can this be for real? If this is true, then the world should put the PLO, Arafat and the PA on the international...

    ANTI-WAR/USA BASHERS: WHERE ARE YOU NOW, MFERS?!?!

    Max, I ask because the "facts" seem to stand on the merit of those who claim to make them. I truly don't know quite what to think, but I figured I could depend on you to shed a little light. I know it's off topic, but your remark (which I realize was said in jest...you are NOT Hapaboy) made...

    Comparing varieties of Poker

    I love hold'em. I love poker. I have no way of declaring what game is "easiest to win". However, the most pure and readable game would be five card stud. Not played much these days. Games go in and out of style. In "The Cincinnati Kid", 5 card stud was the game. Edward G. Robinson against...

    Poll: do you play Poker?

    I think the best answer is not included in the poll. I think there is a HUGE correlation between playing poker and trading. But I don't believe one leads to the other. When I interviewed prospective traders, I always managed to slip in a question about if the applicant played poker. Or...

    ANTI-WAR/USA BASHERS: WHERE ARE YOU NOW, MFERS?!?!

    Max, missed the "tirade". I am sure though that FOX got their money's worth. As an aside, just curious......Max, do you think Jonathan Pollard got a square deal? Didn't get shot, but got a life sentence. What's your take on that my brother? :)Rs7

    ANTI-WAR/USA BASHERS: WHERE ARE YOU NOW, MFERS?!?!

    Make a bad call, and get shot? Max, are you and MondoTrader one and the same? Treason! And Hart's being a Democrat should mean he should have already been in prison for sedition before he even made his statement. Peace, my Brother Max, :)Rs7

    Turn the NYSE into an ECN

    I have neither the patience for NYSE fills, nor do I think of most specialists as anything but crooks. I have for far too many years seen my rather small orders move a market in stock that is not moving on heavy volume. Put in a market order to buy, and the offer goes up. A market order to...

    Would you trade with 56K dial-up?

    Yeah, now that I think about it, it easily could have been a 2400. (4800? so long ago, I really don't recall...definitely pre-14.4). I think I could only fax at 9600. And also, what you say about scalping is very true. Now, a fraction of a second can make a difference. Prior to decimalization...

    The Elite Trader of Yore

    OK, I of course can see your point. But my counterpoint would be this: I came onto ET and tried to make some serious contributions to the trading forums. TriPack was impressed enough to condense a bunch of my posts into a "gems" thread. But the fact is, as an experienced trader trying to...

    Would you trade with 56K dial-up?

    I would think that for price quotes and order entry, 56k should be ok. For charting, my T1 is usually too slow. I traded at one time with a 9600 baud modem. Quotes were pretty good. Orders, of course in those days were done on the phone. Pre Web Days (stone age, 1991).

    Hate Speech

    No, this is not how it works! Hate crimes legislation is something I know a little bit about since my wife was somewhat involved in writing the Florida hate crimes statutes. What seems to be ignored here is that "hate crimes" are not limited by definition, at least in Florida to any...
