[RT] Re: forecasting-track record

Karen,
I don't believe in Elliott Wave,
BUT I do use a lotta Gerri Curl.

Put 20 Elliott Believers in a room,
give them the same chart, and you will get
20 different wave counts. 

Kinda like a Rorschach Ink Blot Test.
Can also throw in a rusty water stain on a chruch wall,
resembling that "Mary" woman.
The mind is a terrible thing to trust.

regards,

jeff
