Don while we are in discussion here, I could save you a few drinks. How do your BT owned offices and the current and future individual trader owned offices differ from the groups you called ("sub llc's"). By the way that is your name for your competitors so I guess you should be able to define it. Don, I know the industry has changed and I think you may be trying to catch up with it as usual.
But since you were the one putting your competitors operations down, I thought you might lay it out here for all to see the pros and cons of those different business models. You know the models you said were inferior to Bright Trading's that you are now adopting.
Or you could admit you purposely misled the readers of this board to disparage your customers business models while at the same time changing yours to meet theirs. Your call. But I am having fun here because I expect you will apologize or at least admit you were blowing smoke.
