I need something to help me understand the stock market. The ins & outs of buying and selling. Capital gains taxes and how to avoid them. When and how should one go about diversifying?
I need a crash course.

Checkout http://www.direct-stock-market.com which is a site that
I helped build. And follow the links to a conference here on the Spring.
Try and make your questions a bit less generic. Clay knows stock markets.

Generic? wow, I thought I was pretty specific. I guess I have more to learn than I thought.
Thanks for the information.

I'm still looking for anything on Boulder, Colorado's STP Family (late 60s/early 70s commune, perhaps more infamous than famous).

ANY information or comment welcome!

I have little idea, only that they were like a commune of outcasts, heavy into drugs and with a certain proportion of Vietnam vets with psychological problems, which added to a curious mix, and many conflicts with society and the law.

I learned about them in a documentaion about a coast-to-coast concert journey in late 60s, early 70s (NOT the Merry Panksters, though), where at one stop they showed up, which lead to a clash of cultures, resulting in some violence.

On one side, the happy, easy hippy kids from middle class families, who can always go back (weed smokers), on the other hand people who have been kicked around and are now willing to escalate, because that's something they were trained to, and likely to, especially when on drugs (amphetamines).

I would like to know more about this group - when they came together, how it ended. What happened inbetween. How public reactions were, what people say today. What music they liked, how they funded themselves. What the benefit and feeling was to be in this group, which seems to have been really tribal.

You know, everybody writes about the memorable and nice things, the communities that worked (somehow), and good people. Nobody looks at the down-and-out, because they didn't contribute to an ideal, or to society... But didn't they? Isn't there perhaps something worthy to learn, even if only as "How Not to"-lesson?

Maybe not acknowledging the dark sides of our Western societies is part of what causes so many problems... Maybe we need to learn more about things like this.

Oh Stacey, perhaps you would like to help me with this? I look for ANY information and/or contacts, comments, sources,...

Wolf, they were drop-outs from society, cast-aways, like hippies minus the flower power, love and peace stuff. At least that's what I heard. Maybe a bit like a communard biker gang, and different drugs than hippies, too.

The very antithesis to happy loving-caring hippy communities, but a proper alternative to established society nonetheless.

I was friends with bishop (dead), LB, duffy, sal, gina (died of aids but had a
decade clean before death - heard her at world convention 12-step program &
exchanged letters for a while), knew deuty dawg (dead)& goldfinger but not
friends. what I mean friends is that I didn't hang out or get fucked up with those 2. knew founder stp john a little, remember that day when he was killed
& bishop avenged him, a very sad day for some of us. who wrote that shit about them & amphetamines? I was a boulder speed-freak but those guys did everything in the world BUT speed. did a lot of shit with those guys but never once shot speed with one of them & I knew all the other speedfreaks. spent time in boulder county jail at different times with wheatgerm, duffy, sal & little brother. whoever said about "amphetamines" never hung out or lived with them
I garrantee you. they stayed in my attic rooms on 14th st. sometimes. they
were the kind of people who you could trust your life with, to watch your
back.
