    I have a dream.

    I would see that as a big step forward. My biggest learning experiences are from losing day's/trades. The bigger the loss, the more I am forced to look at myself in the mirror and do some self evaluation. It's not a good feeling (losing), but it is part of the learning process and one more...

    I completely agree with Easyrider. If we all completely ignore the spam posts they will be buried very quickly. I will do my part and refrain from adding to these threads.

My "hmmm..interesting" remark was simply that I was interested in the explanation as I had considered a possible time zone difference but still couldn't do the math. It was not meant to be an attack on your integrity. (Although it would have...

    Oh for shame!!!
