No one who boasts and self promotes the way MrMarket does has a "HUGE ego". This is a guy that clearly has serious problems with feelings of insecurity and inadequacy. Those with self assurance do not need the kind of attention MrMarket is obsessed with. End of story.

Now here are FACTS, not opinions based on nothing (like yours). Yes, indeed "scientists are human too". But in this particular case if my friend is concerned with global warming as being a potential problem, on what basis do you assume that his interest in the subject qualifies it as...

Well, first off, let me thank you for calling me "kid". Always a pleasure to know that there are those of you older and presumedly wiser than me. "Hard science is bullshit nowadays". OK, what are your qualifications to be so sure that this has been "debunked"? My friend at NOAA seems to me...

No, I will sleep just fine tonight. If I don't it won't be because I am lying awake worrying about global warming. And yes, I understand that politicians are only concerned with their jobs. The power that comes with their jobs. Do I believe that some politicians care more about ecology...

Global warming? What global warming? Just because the glaciers have melted in Glacier National Park, and just because there are bare spots in Antarctica that have never been known to be bare before, and just because the polar ice cap is shrinking....what global warming? So it's cold in...

I disagree. Like the Manhattan Project and the Apollo Program, if the government throws enough money into research, it seems to get results. The sad truth of the matter is that disease and health care are too important to the economy. Cures cut off the flow of money. As just one...

I could not agree less. (Buy that's just me) Peace, :)RS

You disagree with facts? I thought opinions to be the things one could disagree with. Facts are a different thing entirely. But you must be right, and the facts must be wrong, since you have such a phenomenal trading record:confused: Peace, RS

I have downloaded the GFT demo. The platform seems very flexible and user friendly. Has anyone used this firm? Any comments? Also I have been using the IFX demo. While I have not found their platform as easy to use or as flexible as GFT's, I have been encouraged to use IFX by my firm. I am...

I mentioned this before in a different thread. I was in Thailand recently. In Bangkok, I used the hotel's internet service to check my email. It was adequate, but slow. In Phuket I could not get on the web at all before I gave up and asked for a refund for my 15 minutes. But out of...

They don't have to be "newbies"...I traded with a guy for years who never got past the "they" thing. He really believed there was some kind of entity that was responsible for every bad fill and losing trade. He was an idiot. Nice guy, but an idiot. Peace, :)RS

Somehow my addled brain retained this from March!! Tonight I saw "HEAT" for the first time. I noticed on the guide that it was coming on cable. And I recalled that you and others had mentioned it in this thread. Excellent movie, great cast, music, direction....all that stuff you said...

No doubt that the "threat" to baseball posed by gambling has ceased to exist. Long ago. Same is true in any major sport. Rookies who get called up in September for a few games make more dollars now than Babe Ruth ever made ($300K min.). That whole Black Sox premise is long archaic. Did...

What you say can't be in dispute. Cheating is indeed cheating. And I agree with you that Rose, despite his actions deserves to be in the Hall. There can be no argument whatsoever that he earned his way in with his accomplishments on the field. I doubt anyone holds as many records as Rose...

This is an interesting issue. I can see how an argument can be made either way. Betting on the games, assuming that he (Rose) only bet on his own team to win outright (different than betting to win with a spread, in which point shaving becomes a potential issue) is clearly wrong. It was a...

I was getting an error message on start up a week ago. I have a friend who is sort of like Nitro.....amazingly well informed about tech stuff. He has worked for government agencies and large corporations as a computer security consultant. When I described my problem to him over the phone...

AAA, you listen to Rush? What a shock this comes to all of us:confused: We are floored! :D :D Peace, :)RS

Sorry if my meaning was not clear. And re-reading my post, well, I guess I should refrain entirely from posting at 3 am:) Anyway, my point was certainly NOT that non - Americans did not "count". Fonzi, you always count!!! I was only trying to make the point that among traders, it is...

OK, I just saw this and voted (Marxist). Why? Because what's the difference? I have said many times that I have always voted a split ticket. And I have also said that I feel I am mislabeled when you call me a "liberal". I have also said that even though I myself would not call myself a...

You may pay into the systems, but these are not taxes. Whether they are a good or bad "investment" is another issue. But they are popular programs with both the right and the left, and championed by both sides at different times. Social Security was a "communist" concept to the right wing...
