Judging by the number of hits this thread has already had I am one of a large number of so called "lurkers".
Been in EEN for a few years now,taken up rights issues, averaged down etc and still hold looking to acquire more.
I am most grateful for the new thread and the reasoned arguements both positive
and negative. Especially when quoted facts can be checked out.
Found this quote from a letter published in Thursday's FT. Although on a completely different subject I felt it appropriate so I hope no one will object
if I post it here!
"A democracy depends on people taking responsibility for what they say,
and not on people making anonymous and irresponsible statements, whether at Speakers Corner or on the internet".
