John,
I think his question of
is "where is the Moderator"
was an appropriate
request.
I'm being objective<FONT face=Arial
size=2>.
Adrian
posted his "opinion" based
on his experience but
no research or facts
to back that experience
up of what he "thought"
the research "should"
show in past bear markets.
Clyde posted research of
data and then later
posted reseach of the
period Adrian requested.
Adrian did not like those facts
but didn't provide any kind
of research
whatsoever to disprove them.
Just
lashed out in a very
harsh manner because
it didn't agree with
what the research "should"
show according to his
perception based only
on experience; no
research.
My last post on this subject.
Rhonda

Subject: [RT] Adrian/Clyde : One Day
Rally or Start of New Trend
To List:In defense of Adrian and
Clyde:Adrian has always been rather tart and prickly in making many of
his points. That does not mean his observations and points are wrong. He
is just Adrian and I for one have just grown to accept him as is.To
suggest "where is the Moderator" in this case is not in my opinion
appropriate. If that were the case, Adrian would have been gone long
ago. He does make valid points though often in a harsh way.Clyde
has always been one of the most generous contributors to the list. He is
not perfect and who among us is.His enthusiasm oft times gushes over and
that leads him on to further this list in sometimes controversial issues.
I have had disagreements with him publicly and privately but he means well
and does his best. He also does respond to positive critiques. Clyde is a
big guy and knows how to shoot back if he thinks he has been
maligned.I have learned a bit from both.My purpose in posting
this is to put it in some kind of perspective so this "taking sides" can
end and we can get on with it.John------------------

always tell my managenet staff with regards to how they speak to the
general employee base, which pays their wages through their efforts,
it's not what one says it's how you say it.AP, you need to get
off your high horse and simply ask your questions and present your
opinions and observations in a positive and constructive
manner.Just one persons opinion...I only speak for
myself.Are there any moderators here? Apparently not.
