The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Well, it turns out that Recovery Squad damaged the platters of my drive beyond any possibility of repair and were probably lying to me every step of the way.

It will be a long (probably multi-month) programming project to get the GTR1 database updating again."


That's very disheartening.

I've been using the GTR1 ranking feature for two screens that I use, and now I'm adrift. The two screens are variants of Mungofitch's ROE_Cash screen. The screens turn over very slowly, so there wasn't much of a rush. I could put off the screen update for a month or two, but with a longer wait it becomes a problem. I've been producing the rankings with GTR1 using SIPro data. I wonder if anyone else is using the same screens on GTR1, or perhaps producing the same rankings through a different mechanism, such as directly within the SIPro database, or using VL data. If you have, I'd appreciate you sharing your method.
