I think I got the idea for speculating about peoples' motives from Suite 101. It seems to be really popular there.

I defend the facts. Brinker seems to attract "critics" who, for one reason or another, find it necessary to distort the facts by minimizing his successes, when they mention them at all. The trouble with that is that the market does not care how much you hate Bob Brinker. Think about it hypothetically, for a moment. Suppose, for the sake of argument, that you were wrong. Suppose that, instead of his failures being all-important and his successes being insignificant, it were actually true that there were some things he was good at and some things he was not good at, and that the record made it clear which was which. In that scenario, it would work to the detriment of your bottom line to pretend that his views in his area of expertise were unimportant.

You and I obviously disagree about the relative importance of Brinker's successes and failures. That is understandable, but the fact that you find it so baffling that someone could have an opinion differing from your own is suggestive of a remarkable narrow-mindedness.

What's even more baffling is that you seem to have devoted your life to someone you hate.
