Very well written Parker. I love physiology at that level. And thanks for that link. Too long for me tonite. But definitely on the list for tomorrow. An interesting aside about Wellbutrin and side effects. During the clinical studies, as I understand it, the correlation between smoking...

Actually there is a test for serotonin level, but it is not diagnostic for the reason you stated. Therefore, no one uses it. And you make another good point by highlighting my use of the term "deficiency". In the case of serotonin deficiency, I should restate it as meaning the level of serotonin...

WD.... LOL, what makes me laugh is how many of your posts have something to do with chicks and getting laid et al. You are a riot man. Hey, btw, here is another little cool one for alcoholism.... it's called the CAGE questions. Answering yes to one or more means you need to at least get...

version... LOLOL I didn't even think of that. A person who does not have a serotonin deficiency will not benefit from the medication, ie., if you're a happy person, you won't get even happier by taking the stuff. Some depression is psychosomatic in nature, and therefore will respond...

LOL! :) Okay, I'm sorry to be crass, but when rereading my previous post, it struck me funny how well the very last sentence flowed into my signature. Ha ha, I crack myself up.

That's what I was wondering. So I looked it up. It was approved for use in the US in 1991. What's a few years among friends. :) Zoloft and all of the SSRI anti-depressants are not addicting. They typically cause the user to have flu-like symptoms if usage is stopped abruptly...

Barry was banned from the CME for life sometime around 1987.... maybe I'm off about the date. I remember Barry in the spoo pit. He was an alright guy... kept to himself mostly though. He often had two associates with him who never traded. The girl was okay, harmless. But the other guy was a fat...

Aphie I don't understand your logic here. It seems that you are saying observed speed and actual speed are two different things. A light-year is an actual measure of distance that assumes a constant speed. The distance is not covered instantly. It is covered in a year. If I am cruising at...

I'm told you'll have company riskarb. And the only thing I can tell you is he says he'll be there with bells on. That seems kind of odd for a fight but he PM'd me in CAPS to say so. And where I thought he and I were friends, he told me never to PM him again... again in CAPS. So beware of the...

Thanks Gary. Do you know if it will allow for spreads to be less than .05. And one more question... is the fill or show rule still allowed? Thanks guys.

Please accept my apology in advance if this question has either been answered, or is totally ridiculous. After readng a number of the comments on other BOX threads, I cannot help but ask - on the subject of "fairness" - will BOX be to the CBOE what the Nasdaq is to the NYSE specialist...

Swish I am sorry for this tragic event. It just plain stinks that the loss of money led to your friend's death. A long time ago when I was with a major brokerage as an AE, I learned that managing OPM sucked. At least it did for me. When I was right, "they" thought themselves brilliant for...

Same here TM'! Ilaugh at myself about it. However, this newer country is much less nasal - ly, and less twangy too. This stuff has good rhythms. It's not always about "the weeds in the garden of my heart." Current Favorite: I Can Only Imagine - Mercy Me.

This thread has been far more rewarding for me than I could have imagined. It's just nice to see so many of my favorite members contributing. Thanks to all of you.

Wow, that is almost 20 years of flame-free living. Bravo! I cannot say that for myself, that's for sure. I see you're a new member this year.... hopefully some of the null-and-void posting won't ruin your streak.

I write calls on stocks I don't mind owning if I get stuck with them. I try to stick to very high quality stuff that I know will be around versus stocks with symbols like BOZO and CACA that might not be here tomorrow. The yield tends to be lower however. That said, my repair strategy is to...

LOLOL.... thanks for all the replies guys. They represent the very best qualities of Elite Trader... wit and wisdom. I appreciate each one of your contributions. :)

You know cd', I think that's an excellent answer. Maybe it is as simple as that. I'm not hawking over this thread btw.... I'm leaving in a bit for a few hours, but I sure hope some others post their theories or reasons. One thing for sure, I am not trying to pick a fight or demean anyone.

Mr. Moderator, this thread is as lame as they come, but if you will please indulge it for a bit....yet as always, I respect your call. ----------------------------------------------------------- When a thread is started that just irks the heck out of you for any reason, why do you...

Among many other things, I confess that I have not listened one bit to the democratic hopefuls. I can say though that previously I have found Kerry to be at least intriguing. Re: the market activity today, when I left the office around 2:15 today the Dow was up ~20 points. I'm just sitting...
