ah, John, before it was the "train" thread as you call it, it was the free quotes thread, except that Sinclare was stealing the data from the exchanges - well, let's say they were acquiring the data in a manner inconsistent with the requirement that they pay for the rights to use them, and in fact were "acquiring" those data without the knowledge of the exchanges. FlexQuote got derailed real fast once the exchanges got wind of what they were doing.
Though I have no proof of it my gut tells me that LS had some hand in it all, directly or indirectly. Even now his site advises anybody happening by to buy SNCG stock without a the same time revealing that he has a direct financial interest in SNCG; I believe that isn't quite cricket, Old Chap. Bit of a cockup there, eh?
Speaking of "pushing the peddle (as in to sell something)" I think that's what Stockett's hype is all about. Or did you mean pedal?
AFAIK the consultant that I quoted is fully engaged in his work and is marketing his expertise for the purpose of employment. Knock the PhDs if you want and keep the coffee beans airflowing, we're talking about cement and it's Larry's own rubber bags because the cement can't spill and contaminate the ship's hold nor can it get coal dust in it or it loses is strength properties and won't set up and cure properly, leading to potential disaster.
Paraphrasing someone else, it's the stock, stupid - whether it's One Armed Bandits in old Pullman cars or purloined stock quotes, it's the stock that's being flogged.
And claims that can't be proven or demonstrated are fair game for potshots. Stockett makes the claims here and that's where the target is...
