Well Steve since you're the self proclaimed father of this illegitimate
indicator
which we dangerously curve fit to anything in sight, how about justifying
your
un-American ways. (And it's based on Open price as well, disgusting).
Ozies of course are well known for our radical lefty views and really don't
