and more and more of the coffee klatch it has apparently always aspired to be.

Too bad. It always had great potential, but the predilection too many regulars here have of making any "outsider" feel unwelcome has tarnished the brand.

Say "YAY" all you want, but this thread, unlike most of the other regular threads on DU has had a diminishing audience and continues on that path.

In short, no one, save a small handfull like you, will notice when it goes away.

Still waiting for one of you...just one.....to describe the difference between coupon and yield on a bond without Googling it first, but alas.......Market mavens, all, eh?
