Hi Michael,

Actually, I've been a member of this group since the beginning of the 
year, I believe, and I have made at least a few posts in the past, 
although certainly not nearly the number you have (my e-mail address 
can be searched on in the archives of Realtraders which are located 
at www.purebytes.com/cgi-local/swish/swish-cgi.pl).

During that time I've carefully read each and every post to this 
list, including a good portion of the posts in the archives from 
years past, and I am very appreciative for the great majority of what 
people have to say, with the exception of the series of posts I felt 
compelled to finally write about.  Since my bent is more mechanical 
system trading (and coding of the same), I'm not the prolific and 
capable chartist-analyst that so many of the people here are, with 
their often remarkable abilities to ascertain support and resistance 
areas, turning points based on time and Elliott wave structure and 
the like, and so I usually don't feel like any contribution that I 
could make would be up to the level of the other posters, and would 
be more of a guess than anything else.

(For example, I felt that there was a 50:50 chance that the formation 
that completed yesterday in the broader market could have been viewed 
as either a descending triangle with the potential to break to the 
downside, or as a bullish flag/pennant apparent on multiple 
timeframes with the potential to break to the upside;  similarly, 
from a longer term point of view, I think there are about equal odds 
of the market having now put in the final bottom already, based on 
the very strong "V-type" pattern that in other market time periods 
has successfully continued to move to the upside without a retest, 
versus the market having to in fact do a retest of the low made after 
the attack and basically do a little more "shaking out."  Not very 
useful, I'm afraid.)

With the foregoing in mind, to a certain extent then I view this 
group as somewhat similar to a magazine to be read, as I'm sure many 
others do as well - judging from the fact that there are 780 members 
in the list and obviously not all of them are posting.  As such, I 
suppose I was making something akin to a "letter to the editor."  It 
is apparently your opinion that nothing Dorothy has done has been out 
of line.  I take a much different view, and I'm sure that there must 
be at least some others who feel the same way . . . assuming that not 
everyone is a chronically long-term bear, that is.  :)
