Marketwatch Censorship Continues

irishscot2 :

Just reading through today as I have a slow day - was a busy week. I know that I have been targeted for whatever reason, was getting a little frustrated and then remembered that the "points" don't matter, what does it trying to clarify and help others - at least from my viewpoint.
I have learned long ago that you never argue with the irrational, it will just frustrate you. State your case as clearly and concisely as possible and then listen to the response. If the response is a talking point, forget it, you are arguing with a wall and will get you nowhere. If the response is rationale, albeit maybe uninformed, try then to inform and correct.

If the response is an anonymous thumbsdown - of which I now seem to accumulate in blocks of three as per a post above, so be it - I post rationale, documented, researched information, which has served me in good stead for almost thirty years. If others think an informed decision is not the way to invest, let them go their way - MY 401K is in great shape because of my ability to read petroleum distillates. My own portfolios and those of my family also in great shape - one brother pulled out of the broadbased market the day after the all-time high in Oct of '07. I told him to let me know the next time he had one of those feelings - he beat me by two months and 8%!

Bailey's is a staple in the fridge, never put the Scotch there. Should say that I am of Scottish descent, family settled in the USA in the early 1600's in Maine, soldiers never went all the way back after the Civil War, stayed in the NJ/NY area. My wife is the Irish, grandparents off the boat. In the days of limited internet we combined our backgrounds for our email address, I just carry it on today as an identifier.

"Petroleum distillates? I though with your name.. you might be into other "distillates"!"

Per LBX- "This shows that the "censorshp" system is still run amock....No change"
