I guess being a software engineer by trade doesn't make me a technical person now does it? lol

Not automatically, no. Any VB programmer can call herself "software engineer". Perhaps you are capable of understanding what has been happening if you try, but you don't. You don't even make an attempt. Your only interest is the spreading of FUD. And if it is true that you don't make money on it, I can honestly not understand what drives you to waste your time and energy.
I dislike market manipulation by spreading of false rumours and passing of speculation as a fact, and try to correct it by presenting the most accurate information I can find. That's my motivation.
LOL you think that my saying I'm a software engineer that it implies I am a VB programmer? LOL of course once again you would assume the worst to try to discredit your opposition.
I'm much more well versed in other programming languages than VB. VB is for noobs in my view.
Sturle if you knew anything about my rep as being smoothie on these forums is that of calling peoples'/businesses' BS out. Obviously the recent actions and statements from MTGOX are bullshit.
