You know, I'm not appreciating getting beat up on this.

I'm keeping an open mind.

I said I'd listen.

I told you my viewpoint.

And here you are, kicking me in the shins for having that viewpoint.

I didn't ask you to "dispel falsehoods." I don't have any questions. I don't feel any particular attraction to listening to your take on HFT; I've done plenty of reading on my own and had lots of my own experience with markets which - to put it bluntly - you're doing your best to denigrate.

So basically, I said "go ahead, but recognize that I'm skeptical" and you're saying "you're an ass for being skeptical."

Skepticism intact. If this is how you evangelize, I suggest you work on your bedside manner.
