    How CRA led to the Crisis

    You really don't have much of a clue, do you? The Act sailed quickly through the House, but stalled in the Senate due to Gramm's insistence of stricter deregulatory language. Gramm opposed any language that could provide the SEC or CFTC with any hope of authority in regulating or oversight...

    Franken Declared Winner by Minnesota Supreme Court

    Get over it dude. The Minnesota Supreme Court's decision was unanimous. Norm Coleman lost. Coleman, appearing relaxed and upbeat, said he had congratulated Franken, was at peace with the decision and had no regrets about the fight, which started almost immediately after the Nov. 4 election...

    Attitudes on the forum

    It has NOTHING to do with being lazy my friend. It's about making some small changes so as to try and facilitate some integrity into the website and maintain a certain quality of content and posting. If you have a ton of "aliases" running around on ET ( such is currently the case, with many...

    Agreed 100%. Pete, with all due respect stop wasting everyone's time on this thread and please share with us the specs of your current PC. If you don't give us any idea about what you are currently using, and what kind of software applications you are using it for, this entire thread is a...

    Attitudes on the forum

    Agreed 100%. I made the same suggestions YEARS AGO to Baron about using the criteria that you listed above in order to confirm ID and weed out all of the multiple user names and preserve a certain quality of posting content. It fell on deaf ears, largely because ( as you indicated ) it...

    Head and Shoulders forming on the S&P 500 - Target price 800

    Sorry buddy, but the neckline at the 880 SPX level would have to be taken out in order to confirm the H&S pattern. You are way ahead of yourselves. :)

    How CRA led to the Crisis

    You left out the ratings agencies lke Moody's Standard & Poors, and Fitch. You also left out the "Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000" that was spearheaded by Texas Republican, Phil Gramm that created the unregulated CDS "market". :)

    Computer for trading

    My educated ( and experienced ) guess from trading from a home office is that the CPU is not nearly as important as the speed and quality of your internet broadband/connection, how far your broker's servers are from you, and how robust the trading platform is that you are using. There are...

    CA liberal idea of "living within our means"

    Noreen Evans is not representative of voter sentiment in this State. She doesn't have one single ounce of common business sense and has made a living off of suing people. She is an attorney that has consistently voted for legislation that increases litigation volumes and costs. The law...

    CA liberal idea of "living within our means"

    That's funny, you didn't seem very upset when your beloved George Bush "loaned" $17.6 BILLION to GM and Chrysler last December. At least California has an economy that ranks it as one of the most productive economies in the world, based on $1.7 Trillion in 2006. Last time I checked, that...

    Trading tax of .25% on all transactions! Have you seen this?

    Some would say that this thread was started to generate "web-activity" near the end of the month for ET, so that ET can provide metrics such as web "hits" to current and prospective advertisers. Why else would a user name that was registered way back in 2005 "come out of a cave" in the last...

    CA liberal idea of "living within our means"

    Nothing that happens in the State of California effects you personally. Or are you just trying to generate more web "activity" as a "prop" poster for ET since it is almost month end? Nothing like "marking-up" web-hits for Baron as the month comes to a close, eh? Do you get a bonus...

    Widescreen vs Square Monitors

    The widescreen layout is indeed annoying. I only use it for charting. For actual reading and surfing of the Internet, the "normal" square-screened displays are the best.
