Poor bvb - although I think the saying that discretion is the better form of valour and certainly he lacked discretion, the fact he purchased MOL at the time he did, should have tempered that anger of his re OZL, I'd have thought. Anyway, I like to read his posts - he was proved correct on important issues on OZL, but lacked the communication skills necessary.

DISCRETION IS THE BETTER PART OF VALOR - Exercise caution, don't take unnecessary risks. Proper judgment is better than unwarranted bravery. The proverb has been traced back to Caxton's 'Jason' (c.1477) and was popularized by Shakespeare in 'King Henry the Fourth, Part I' (1597-98) and by Beaumont and Fletcher in 'A King and No King' (1619).
