I was having a fine day until I downloaded the Omega list. 
Nea1, how do you know that this stuff doesn't do more HARM than good? Are
you willing to accept the responsibility? I'm still waiting for you to
answer these questions.

I've been trying to make an IMPORTANT POINT lately but feel like a voice
crying in the wilderness. That being that it's a BIG MISTAKE to listen to,
care about, or especially to seek out the Market Opinion of others. When
they lay it on you unsolicited you should run the other way. And when they
start telling you how they were Right on this or that you should recognize
it for what it is: Blatant self promotion, insidiously designed to appeal
to those who are weak in their convictions and confused in their opinion.

In my own sick mind I feel like if I could just get people to see this
point they could potentially save a lot of money. That's my motivation. But
I do hereby give up. Everybody has to learn the hard way. 

P.S. To the bottom buyer in corn: Did I understand that this was Neal's
idea? Here's another idea: Everytime it goes down another 5% you should
double up. Then when you get a margin call you can get a cash advance on
your visa card. Finally when you're flat broke you can go ask Neal for
help.
