<span
style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I am a
lurker on the board and I have resisted the temptation to fire back a response after
a couple of your emails but this last one with the reference to “that Mary woman”
was enough.

<span
style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>First,
lets leave personal issues aside from the list as some of us find this extremely
offensive. Secondly, most on the board attempt to offer something constructive.
I am not saying all are good and do not warrant criticism or challenge but in
your case you do nothing to further the discussion other than launch a few over
used statistical phrases and satirical remarks.

<span
style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Lets face
it…to have a truly in statistically significant system the number of observations
required would be a couple of lifetimes. I personally don’t care to wait that
long so I play the best odds my systems will give.

<span
style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Last, if I
wanted to read or listen to another talking head I would just flip on CNBC. Either
offer something constructive or leave us alone.

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
