Hi vlanschot, You overrate your ability to engender panic by several orders of magnitude.
And yes, you cannot possibly imagine how I coped last week, nor this week, nor during any week, unless you take the other side of my trades. I just find it strange that you had to announce that you sent a private email -- on a public list. Also, FWIW, I think I was part of this community before you were, and I don't think it has changed that much. You can go back to trying to look clever now; I won't attempt to get into your way. But frankly, the bulk of the membership here is probably not the least bit interested to know that you sent an email to anyone who is a member of this list (or the list owner), the contents of which they will probably never share. And personally, I could not be less interested. But I find it strange nonetheless. Yuki Monday, September 22, 2008, 6:43:26 PM, you wrote: v> Hi Yuki, v> You seem quite emotional about emails.
