Oh, yeah - now I remember! That wonderful Dave Barry piece on stocktrading.

Ah, well. Guess we're just "earning our wings". We're no longer a virgin board. Oops, can I say "virgin"? OK. We're no longer a vir**n board.

Oh, and Richard, my friend. Wouldn't even mention this if it weren't for the "TMF" in front of your handle and your high level of integrity and responsiveness. (Which I truly value, no kidding.) But, while I was waiting for this page to load I washed a load of clothes, took the dog for a walk, began preparing dinner, and just as I was picking up a novel to read a few pages - voilá - up popped the page I was waiting for. And I'm using my ultra 256K cable modem! Hate to think if I was still stuck with 28.8. Anyway - could you possibly shed some light on what is happening here at our beloved Fool site? Email would be fine if it's a secret. LOL. (Still trying to retain some sense of humor, despite the increasing difficulties inherent in the situation - sure you understand.)

Best to all,
