List wouldn't be much fun if we didn't get stupid questions. Well
they really aren't stupid are they. Hell I don't know what the deal
is on those bonds. Don't care either. I was a broker so I know about
bonds but what would a back adjusted bond be. Useless for anything I
can think of except current price. What system would work on a bond
prices at 10 or 15? The system would think you lost your digit.
Be brave and bring on those questions. Don't take any trash off
anyone on the list.
