Dear QS:Rick on the QCOM thread pointed people to a posting on another thread that says SI is shutting down. Rick's URL was reading 10 postings at a time. Here in the one in that batch:

Message 15306181

Notice how a new meeting site, should SI actually close down, has been set up at RB?

Besides being stupid, RB and Yahoo! drive me crazy with all those spammers. It's also a pain in the neck not being able to read 10 postings at a time. None of those sites enable people to send PMs.

"People have to pay and, for a variety of financial and psychological reasons, they'll only pay in a bull (or bubble) market."

Probably a big problem here at SI right now is that most people do not pay. Some of us never have--we were grandfathered from the days when SI was free. Others became, "Free for life," members via invitation last summer and last month. Then there are the people who got SI memberships last year by opening accounts with Etrade. I don't know how SI can make money when it's a subscription site yet anyone can read it who wants, member or not, and there are legal ways to join and avoid ever paying.

I am going to be very disappointed if SI goes down the tubes.

Think someone like Schwab or the WSJ would be interested in SI?
