"... withering sarcasm ... ?"
Sorry, I try to fly above this stuff, but you've got to be kidding. A dry sense of humor agreed, is the criticism really about the tone of posts, or being a "basher."
What makes anyone think this is anything derogatory? "Nice personal stories from board members including incredible successful strategies like generating $4000/months in day trading activities in RRIF (register retired income account) by trading CLL shares." I don't see it.
There are obvious cultural differences; a little understanding would go a long way. He's temporarily out of CLL and still providing wit and wisdom.
Funny when Connacher's doing well the cheap shots disappear.
