It's nice to know somebody missed me Senator McCarthy,er, I mean Alydar in Calif. While it would be un-American to answer your exact question, these are the 2 groups I unsuccesfully tried to provoke:(1)Those who, minutes after the ROTW is up, post an "analysis" based entirely or almost entirely upon reading between the lines of JB's comments, which in some cases were not understood in the 1st place. In addition to never voicing any independent thoughts, I find it puzzling that those who do this have somehow reached the conclusion that someone cares what they think JB's comments mean. IMHO, comments regarding the ROTW analysis should be serious,original,etc & should only be made if the poster can honestly say that he or she has spent something approaching the same amount of time & work which went into something which, after all, was provided gratis; & (2)The meatheads who, instead of handicapping, buy the daily analysis & then post vicious & mindless diatribes if they don't turn a profit that day. I'm never going to underrstand the allure of betting on horses someone told you to bet on, let alone the truly mystifying practice of going off on an analysis that the poster had not even purchased.
Finally, although I'm trying to keep an open mind on the subject, I am not now & never have been a Communist or a Communist sympathizer, despite what you may have heard about my nickname and/or the so-called "Cuba incident."
