Topica Email List Directory Sorry, I don't mean to lose it, but I've had it up to here with the
whole "well, if you believe *markets are conversations*, why don't you
let us talk freely." There is a big difference between "markets are
conversations" and every fucking idiot and his dog expressing their
opinion. Don't get me wrong -- I love it when people start their own
websites. Great! Go express yourself! Guess what? If you touch a
nerve, you'll get readers. But the simple fact is that most of these
discussion board shitheads couldn't pull readers to their own site if
their life depended on it.
Not to revert to the whole complex adaptive systems theory all over
again, but voices of prominence rising to super-node status in the
network is simply how this shit works. No one said all of the nodes
would be of equal status.
