  1. Just ridiculous. What I brought up was the technology regarding emerging energy trends, which I pay close attention to. You can dismiss it or not. Not my issue. You don't have to "remind" me. I pay close attention for opportunities. The fact is that the technology is sound, the company is doing great and the stock has more than doubled since I brought it up, which was not intended to talk about trading, but to point out what is going on in the energy markets, and how we no longer have the needs we used to from foreign supply.
  2. Good Lord, give it up. The thing has over doubled since I brought up the technology. Whoever doubts this, and has the guts to do something about it, has gotten crushed. You trying to save face by posting opposing views, which, if someone acted on them, would have been economic suicide, is ridiculous. The market is telling you are urinating into the wind, 'cause of pride. Deny reality.
  3. Well, well well. Seems like the market agrees with me. https://www.google.com/finance/quote/BE:NYSE?window=6M
  4. Ya. I mentioned that specifically in my post. Didn't like him then and don't like him now. I specifically mentioned, at the time, that people have a "to do" list. Bolton has a "to bomb" list, and it is very extensive. I don't "hate" anyone. Funny coming from you, as you disparaged him when first appointed, and now seem to have some sympathy. Bolton is a bomb everybody guy who has never had to do anything, and he like to hear himself. In the real world, people actually have to do this stuff. In a word, punk.
  5. Bolton was the one guy I commented on here about appointments in Trump's first term. Don't like him at all. Never have. He is a loudmouthed, me first, get me in front of a camera, war monger who wants to bomb and invade everyone, including Iran when it was still Persia. I have no idea about this recent episode with him, but the less heard from him and his views, the better.
  6. Evidently, the actual charts on natural gas prices since January don't matter to him. https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/NGAS/?timeframe=YTD How about oil? "The price of oil has seen a decline from earlier in the year, with a notable drop of approximately 7.79% year-to-date. The highest price recorded this year was around $69.00 per barrel in January." https://duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=oil+prices+year+to+date&ia=web
  7. I am so sick of this injury crap this preseason. I half expected to see an addition that the cart ran over Cole Bishop on the way out.
  8. I don't think that is going to happen. I believe that a final agreement would include a provision that would make it suicidal for him to pursue any offensive moves.
  9. Nobody is going to like it. The issue is whether allowing thousands to die is worth "not liking" an agreement. This needs to end. The military purpose is going nowhere on either side; one for nationalistic pride, and deserved, righteous indignation, and one for a spent cost losing strategy.
  10. I like Bolivia, a lot. I know Muppy has spent some time there as well. It was obvious to me that Morales was never going to work, just a typical Socialist guy who could never advance his country. Good luck to them.....And......If you are ever in the neighborhood, Bolivian ceviche is the best food I have ever eaten, and La Paz is the most fun place to land.
  11. I think that getting the border secured and getting most NATO countries to provide something close to what they promised are OK.
  12. You really advance yourself with these incisive observations on the subject matter and valid character judgements.
  13. I never claimed inside info, but I've been watching this for years, and a few months before this happened, there was a fairly detailed discussion in the public domain on a site I pay close attention to, detailing the issue, and it was not optimistic. I am also very familiar with weapons/tanking/strike planning and a host of other things related to this strike. I think you are really wrong in your assessment. This was damn near a miracle outcome. The best that could be hoped for. Iran will continue to try, because the regime is insane, but that does no diminish, in any way, the incredible success of this strike.
  14. I have no idea how much you know about this stuff, or what was envisioned regarding the attempt to eradicate the Iranian nuclear program, but what happened far exceeded the best thoughts of the Israeli and US military, and peaceful thinking people should be ecstatic. Saying that Israel "blew its cover," is like saying the US blew its cover at Hiroshima. I think your views are significantly lacking.
  15. Not to disappoint, but the Republican candidate for Virginia Governor is going to get crushed. She simply has no campaign. Glen Younkin was/is great, but that's about to end.
  16. I suggest it was immensely successful, and that destroying the entirety of the fissile material is an impossible, ridiculous, and utterly unachievable standard. Israel destroys your air defense system and nuclear facilities over a five day period. The international community engages in a days long discussion of attacking the facilities. With that heads up, you would have to be an absolute moron to not remove this stuff from those very same facilities that were largely destroyed. It still has to be converted to metal. It still has to be weaponized and strapped to a missile, and if any of those things are noticed, stand by for round three.
  17. The severe consequences are probably sanctions, and are not going to tip the scale. Putin is too far in, and the Russians are fully used to the boiling water frog comparison.
  18. No sir. You are incorrect. You are wrong again, and you are lying. I have always advocated for the US support of Ukraine. Always. What I have stated about the stupidity of the "war criminal" allegations is to be careful about it, because it can apply to anyone, including a whole bunch of Americans. I have done more in my life to advocate for the demise of Putin and the old Soviet Guard than you ever will. I spent a couple years teaching the US and other allied nations tactics to destroy that regime. So..In short, you can stick this idiotic accusation......
  19. Quite incorrect, but not surprising. I have always supported US support for Ukraine. Not sure how you came up with that, but it sure as hell wasn't from me.
  20. Retirement is great, but I really miss the views, especially over the North Atlantic, Alaska on the way to Asia, or the gorgeous Andes descending into a South American destination. Best wishes for you as you wind it up. To extend the Navy blessing, Fair winds and following seas.
  21. I'm not going to waste my time looking up your silly posts. You claimed, on quite a few occasions that his actions, specifically with Iran, were threatening to get us into WWIII. After the third time you made that claim, I specifically asked you what you were referring to. You either linked or mentionned the killing of that terrorist general intent of killing US deployed troops.
  22. So wrong. So stupid. So predictable.
  23. I remember you specifically making the accusation Trump might start WWIII after the dispatching of Qasem Soleimani, who was actively planning an attack on US troops. So the glass house thing.
  24. Putin is hopelessly caught in the "sunk cost fallacy. The only reasonable way out for his country is getting rid of him.
  25. I don't see a resolution to this. If Putin gives up any Ukraine territory he's going to have to justify wasting a generation of his population, destroying his economy for no good reason. Zelenskyy absolutely does not want the legacy of giving up real estate to Russia. So, both leaders are backed into a corner they can't get out of.
