Woops! This goes along with the post above.I was hoping that "Don " would respond by this time. I guess not. Now that you have all had a good chuckle, I will give you my reasons:

1. Where has Don posted since he joined as a member of SI on May 8? Almost exclusively (with one exception on the UTEK stock board -- a stock BB follows) to this Board.

2. In one of his posts, Don had in his back pocket a copy of a 1994 Radio and Records Magazine on BB. This is not something your every day Joe buys off the racks and is not an article a Joe would keep framed in the livingroom for quick retrieval for posting on SI. I asked Don if he was in the radio business in one of my posts and got no response.

3. Don gives his mailing address as acecruiser@aol.com. As you may or may not know, BB's is an AOL subscriber. In addition to your master screen name on AOL (Bob's is "brinkerbob") you are allowed to have four additional screen names that tie into to your master name. For a time, BB was posting on his board as "acerpar" or "aceorpar." "Acecruiser" is a simple extension of that theme tied into "MoneyTalk" with the word "cruiser." In fact, I believe for a time BB posted anonomously on his AOL thread as "acerpar" until someone asked if he were BB. BB finally stated that he was one in the same. Sound familiar?

4. BB left a paper trail. As I have previously said, BB posts on his AOL thread. Like most everyone else, he goes to his thread reviews questions and answer some all in one sitting. Remember Don joined SI on May 8. BB did not post on AOL from May 11 through May 17. On May 18, a Sunday, BB made one of his only two posts for the day on AOL. That post was logged in at 11:46 am on AOL. Twenty minutes later, Don posted reply #525 on SI to Scott D at 12:05pm. Later that day, BB posted on AOL at 7:48pm (19:48:34 EDT) for his second and last post on AOL for the day. Seven minutes later, at 7:56 pm, Don posted his second and final post for the on SI at #527. (Truman, the reference to Flanagan was made to throw everyone off the scent of his previous post to Scott D which so looked like a Brinker defense upon retrospect to BB that he had to cover his tracks. What better way to cover tracks than to unduly and inaccurately (BB has worked long weekends to my recollection) join in the barabs aimed at BB himself and to rib a colleague.) Finally, on May 29, BB posted his only response of the day on AOL at 8:25 am and within 30 minutes of that post at 8:52 am, Don had posted his one post to Truman SI at #589.

5. Now go back and look at all of Don's posts, especially #589 and #525. Does Don say "I believe Bob said...." or "I recall Bob said...." No, he speaks from personal knowledge and is quite knowledgeable. The passionate tone from Don in post #589 comes from one who feels personally offended. Look for the Binker vocabulary in all the posts: "complacency," " age of reason" etc. Finally, acecruiser or Don has never posted on the AOL thread -- unusual for someone who respects BB and who is so very well informed.
