I just heard the first part of that on a local radio show - where Bill Murray says "you will achieve total consiscousness when you die."

Oops, so I did. Thanks zboy.

Man, I gotta try that squawk someday. Is there a free trial someplace?

:confused: I've had more than a couple whiskeys, but this statement I do not understand. Lower demand = higher prices? And, I thought gold mines are (in general) running a chunk below cap, so they can up production should a spike occur? I'd appreciate it if you could explain.

The best way is to have an idea that you want to put into code, and then do it. There is no substitute for hands-on experience. I came from a strong programming background, and picked up EL fairly quickly (although there are concepts in EL that do not exist in the traditional programming...

Healthcare has been rising and will continue to rise as the nation ages and most of us are on insurance. The only way it will stop rising is if there is some sort of strong incentive that convinces the insured (us) to conserve healthcare.

LOL. Just like real life alright - the establishment gets to break the rules to screw the "regular" people.

Since there was some discussion about DSL and cable, here's a deal on them. Earthlink is offering a special rate for new DSL and cable subscribers ($29.95/month for six months). The cable offer applies to Time Warner only. DSL 1. DSL modem is free if you continue for one year. 2. After...

Yeah, and why sage? How about red pepper?

In my case it was strictly emotion. About 25% of my trading was discretionary (I'm reducing that now). I exagerated a bit when I said I got creamed every time, but overall I lost money trading 10 contracts.

Watch out when you go to increase your trading size. I would trade 5 ES and rake in pretty good money, but everytime I kicked up to 10 I got creamed. There's a person who goes by the handle of p^t who said he's fond of the saying "You have to earn the right to trade size." Thanks again...

Everytime I see this topic show up on the home page, I always think it says: "I can't stop whining." :D Nothing against the author of this thread, more of an observation on some of the things that are written here.

One thing I've noticed here at ET, is there is occasional discussion about which clearing firm a broker uses, but there does not seem to be any indications that one clearing firm is better than another. I'm not sure how much of a difference there can be, if one is trading electronic markets...

You ain't kidden', we are feaken' awash with cash. I'm starting to think the fed is printing money solely to stave off deflation. I thought I was fairly good at econ, but when I think about deflation, my mind just wonders in circles :confused:

Next time a proctologist with a flashlight will show us where the times come from. :D

Hey could you hosers get back to work? I'm waiting by the counter, and there's nobody here! I'm starved! This is supposed to be fast food, fer crying out loud! :D BTW, here's store #374: http://www.jackinthebox.com/locations/map.php?UID=374

Where's his Alter Ego (ALICE)? :D EDIT: Man, I hate it when I accidently post a fairly lame joke after a good one. Nice one TM.

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure that T1s are about 1.5 megabits per second. Not to disagree with your providers, but I'd get that speed in writing and test it using perhaps www.dslreports.com. I know there are higher Ts with faster speed, mebbe that's what you are getting.

LOL - my first thought was where to invest it, and my second was how to avoid taxes.

A T1 will still have a downspeed of about 1 or 2 megabits (pretty much the same as decent DSL or cable), but you have much faster upspeed and lower latency. I'd advice you to consider running both cable and DSL - you can get a swell router that will attach your LAN to both those WANs.
