I have been a member here long enough to remember when the Hoov made his first post on this forum. I did not agree with his post at the time (whatever it was), and told him so. In fact we had a very serious discussion on the subject, and I do not recall who won the debate, but it lasted several days.

The point I am raising, is that he has presented an argument that holds water, but only if using the parameters that a previous poster presented, and he said so.

I have read his post here today as well as the responses from Cashin and mining, and find it quite amusing that they feel empathy towards their posts being flagged.

I am considered a hub leader here, and as such, I supposedly have the authority to delete these posts. I have never used this authority, and am hesitant to start. However if there were ever a posting that deserves deletion because of the six rules, both of these should be removed
