Thomas,

I wouldn't keep re-iterating this point except for the enthusiasm of other posters who seem anxious to not only declare a gorilla game, but to anoint the winner at a time when I think the best we have is a shapely snowball.

I think you're being unfair. If posters in their best judgement feel it is a gorilla game, I don't see anything wrong in their enthusiasm about that. The judge's decision yesterday about individual investors' respsonsibilities in the Mary Meeker case comes to mind.

As for those who you feel have annointed the winner of the gorilla game, I challenge you to find any post that does that in context. In other words, find a post that the author doesn't later or earlier make qualifications that soften the gist of what s/he writes. I honestly don't remember anyone declaring BEA a gorilla yet your posts make me believe you think at least several people have. Please show us the posts that support your belief.
