O.k... maybe I just lost the connection in what you were saying in the first pots... because I thought that overall you were responding to Fakhoury, then all of a sudden you mentioned me in what I read as the same context.. so then I may have erroneously made a connection.

Another point:  I personally don't have any problems with various posters in this thread having a variety of opinions and expressing strong disagreements about the price direction and future of BTC.. and actually, I kind of wished I would have known about Fakhoury's permabull thread earlier..  I think that it is better to chime in while the comments are occurring, rather than reading back during the past year.. when some of the comments are going to be stale... . 

Each of us bring our life experiences, and differing perspectives regarding bitcoin, yet overall because of the innovative nature of bitcoin and its challenge to various aspects of the status quo, I think that the bulls tend to have the more healthy perspectives regarding this still apparently early adopter intervention (even though sometimes they exaggerate, too, as we have likely witnessed through our forum participation..).
