[11:50:22] <guy> thanks
[11:50:25] <tuna> dead
[11:51:26] <tuna> i gotta feeling lod is in
[11:56:52] <tuna> that huge ib +50% is making me think the lod is in fwiw
[12:06:24] <guy> why do you think that the big IB means that we've seen LOD?
[12:07:06] <tuna> just the gut
[12:08:12] <tuna> anything can happen
[12:08:45] <guy> Here's a chart with the IB's in perspective:
[12:08:50] <signal>
[12:09:17] <tuna> according to hawkins 50% of an ib is a level to watch too
[12:09:56] <tuna> fwiw
[12:11:43] <guy> i didn't know that
[12:12:19] <guy> but eyeballing that chart it looks like LOD is 50% of IBL to DIBL so that would tie in with your theory
[12:12:29] <tuna> its in mikey's book
[12:14:07] <tuna> we'll know for sure in 4 hours
[12:14:13] <guy> i will be buying that book on the 3 October
