Pete I would under "normal circumstances" agree with what you have said but, I would hardly consider the Brinker phenomenon to be classified as normal. My take is Bob is just one of those people that can only be happy living on the edge. He has to be the center of attention to be happy. I would think he has all the money he and subsequent generation could spend. So what is his motivation? Ego, celebrity status, or history breaking market timing? I really don’t care. I judge people not by how "successful" they are but by the way they conduct themselves. I would say using the reasonable doubt standard Bob’s conduct is suspect at best.

I am sure you aware of all the under handed dirty tricks that were pulled on people at his site in order to try to hide his true record. The banning of posters, the stealing of identities, the posting under alias names. Come on now is this any way to act? You may say that we have no direct proof that Bob personally did those things but, it is his site with his name on it. The buck stops at Bob! If that is all the better he can do I sure don’t want to support him or that type of behavior. I would hope by sharing that info nobody else would either. Sooner of later Bob will have treated all his loyal followers badly. Then he will be the only one left. Call it reaping what you sew, Karma or what ever.

As we commemorate the 10 year milestone of the gulf war remember how loyal Sadam’s troops were to him after years of intimidation and mistreatment. Surrendering to news crews yup that is loyalty. I hope Bob's defeat is not violent but I am sure it will be ugly and loud. He wouldn't have it any other way imo.
