Hey pal, what exactly is your problem today? If you're having a bad day, that's fine. But would you take your attitude and your insults somewhere else and please do not post to me again.

I've had an excellent day, thank you. Fully profitable in both lumber and rice, as well as in straddles on CME shares. Plus, I was able (took too long, my fault entirely) to convert the old REFCO, Inc. daily equity run printouts to the new Man Financial style, for the local office here. Might get a side benefit from selling the conversion programme to other offices, but unimportant.

No problem at all. I'm just very, very tired of listening to/reading self-important individuals, whether here or in the LBM, who haven't the necessary specific knowledge required to either trade in or opine on any given mkt. There is, btw, an industry-standard term for chaps such as you, and it is not flattering.

Gee, I'm truly sorry if my accurate observation(s) bothers/bother you.

Btw, if you think my recent comments were insults, that's another subject about which you haven't a clue. Uninformed clowns (regarding energy mkts) such as you do UNTOLD damage to this nation, and you should live so long as to get a free pass on your drive-by silliness (the gentlest term I could find at short notice, and I do credit Mr. Limbaugh for his adaptation of the adjective used).
