Glad you enjoyed it! I should clarify that I continue to use my mind 
for analysis too (lol). And the stocks were just purchased about

I could "magically" deduce knowledge. I am working on it, though it 
is a more complex learning process than I at first believed.

that "the mind has several arrows of time" if there are specifics 
you had in mind.
