This is Mr Lincoln Augustus, first second cousin of Holymagiman.

Dear Mr Factfinder,

You have no idea how terribly upset we all are that Holymagiman has upset you, and we would strongly suggest that you Filter him off by putting him on "Ignore"

The family has long discussed switching off the computer to prevent him from posting, but unfortunately we have signed on to a 48 month plan in which we are only allowed to log in and log out of the internet provider five times every month. So if we switched off the computer more than five times a month to stop Holymagiman from posting, we would not be able to communicate with the good people like you. We could upgrade our plan to one that allow nine log ins and log outs a month, but that would sorely strain the family's finances in these troubled times, especially as Millie Mae has just lost her job. So please, please, please, use the IGNORE button to Filter him off.

I think Holymagiman is most concerned that figures like 300 percent are being touted around in this unstable market about Linc and other shares and it is my impression that he posted what he did to get some calm into this all....not , I hasten to add, to send a message to wise people like you, but rather to tell any newcomers to the market that they should be careful not to be swept up in the hype and exuberance of what is written in a free Newsletter. Advice that costs nothing is sometimes only worth just that.

Holymagiman is delighted with your previous posting and says that that was the first time someone had posted something in such good English that he could understand it first time off without using a dictionary. He asked how you became so proficient overnight and asked if your future postings would be as lucid as that.

I told him that you had written it tongue in cheek and h asked me which cheek, then he thought about it and told me that that was good as the Good Lord always asked us to turn the other cheek. Dear Mr Factfinder, I am lost for words on how to respond to Holymagiman, so I guess it is best for you to answer Holymagiman yourself on that one.

He has gone offto do some fishing today. Fishing and smoking, what a good life we lead here in Jamaica.

May the good Lord envelope you in his warmth and remove the stresses from thy soul.
