Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying SCOTT26 is dishonest or anything. It's just that he can't possibly have all the answers all the time. He can only tell us what he knows right now, and what he can release without getting fired. I appreciate what he does, but a savvy enthusiast always asks questions.
I think of him/her in these terms--ever read your horoscope? Ever notice that it is so general that you find yourself nodding and thinking, man this f***er really knows me! That's what some folks on here do when his comments automatically = the holy grail.

Same kind of thing here--he is good for info on a general basis, but not with enough specificty to have all the details. Case in point "there will be an M2, but it will not be tomorrow" which he has said numerous times. That's great and all, but without some specifics, you have to take it with a grain of salt and hope for the best.

Just my $.02.
