Earl:
Thank you for your thoughts on the matter. I have always appreciated
your contributions. None of this was about being right about the
market. It was about how it was done. I would hope that you could
understand the subtle difference. It was at best disingenious and at
worst deceptive. We deserve better.
Regards,
John J. Lothian

case ... price has whisked past 470.

which you took exception, was clearly tongue-in-cheek and was derived
from his early, and correct, call on beans. I think you need to get
off his case.
