Come on, don't be so hard on all of us (and on yourself too)! You lost your stop? I guess you actually mean you only made a small profit rather than a bigger one. Next time remember - if your hedging short doesn't hurt a bit at times, you're probably being too conservative.

As for the others, there are different readings of the situation - uh ok well, maybe not for Rosewater  

Tera has put away so much that she's unwilling to keep going through the emotional stress, at least for a while. JJG has been celebrating on one Piña too many, so he couldn't give a ratt's ass about building a few more walls of text. Bawb is celebrating too, so he took a break. Jimbo is hard as a rock, surviving jungle and dentists before he greets us all one fine morning. Jojo has always been a nice troublemaker guy, so what were you expecting? Elwar has been at it for a while. As for the trolls, it's just that we're bored with this slow bleeding phase - most of us have seen it all already - so we occasionally waste some time and energy feeding them a bit too much - even if the zoo is disseminated with signs warning visitors not to.

Capitulation? Maybe in due time. Not yet, however. All we can say to the Grim Reaper is "not today". Same with capitulation thoughts now.
