Hi Gents,

Thank you for your recent posts, and for your kind words.

I opened the forum temporarily (at the request of Wayne) to provide an opportunity to share contact information. However, the posts of the past few days have encouraged me to consider keeping the forum open -- at least for now. Let's see how it goes.

I can say with all confidence, however, that the forum will not continue to operate as it has been. If the forum is not fulfilling its role as being a "friendly place to discuss futures trading" and/or if it becomes a place to discuss contentious issues then it will be shut down again, but permanently.

Now the question is: how do we prevent that? I am going to think on that, while I watch what happens over the coming days.

Best to all, and thanks again,
Mike
