  1. Are we to conclude, then, that the posters who were so favorably impressed with the article are new to trading?

    I think it's a fair assumption to make that a good number of them are, and I assume others who are not are looking at it from the point of view of "Does it help the intended viewer" and I think if you look at it objectively you will conclude that it does.

    My opinion is that there is a pattern to be observed here with the cheerleaders and the "favorably impressed" crowd again with a few exceptions. It should be fairly plain sailing to anyone who has been regularly perusing this site.

  4. Fair enough, just as long as we understand the nature and level of the targeted audience.
    Darn.

    That's the secret sauce for the esoteric few, ostensibly.

    more liberal race bullshit.

    That guys pulls that race card and when called out says I did not specify who and then later says race is unimportant.

    Anyone pulling the race card and then says race is unimportant could only be an illogical liberal.

    Whether called out or not - it makes no difference. I am not concerned about race at all not one bit. And I respect all men who have peaceful religious beliefs.

    I am concerned about culture. I do consider some cultures to be better than others. Mine happens to be pretty good. All are welcome to join mine or suggest reasons why theirs is superior or worthwhile.

    Now I know all you liberals are going to have a problem with that statement.

    But, it is essentially what society is all about. By the way Pabst's quote is true for all people as well. Anyone with half a brain makes associations.
    The question is whether the association provide an accurate road map.


    You see enough of anything and sooner or later you will make generalizations. If not you would die from sitting in a fire place.
