Poet,

I am sincerely sorry Tastes Like Chicken lost
money for you.

Back in 2000 he accused my newsletter of posting false returns because I reported on over 200 stocks that beat the NASDAQ 100. No, I am not soliciting you to buy the stocks that did or could appear in my column.

Then he told me he would be available as a consultant and that he is "good" and "expensive".

Message 14681690

Eventually, his column replaced my column that appeared on SI.
It was obvious that he wanted my position in some way on SI.
Not sure on how he was selected or chosen for the writing position. I will admit he is very convincing and has powers of persuasion.

The big problem I have with Tastes Like Chicken is that he accused me of false things regarding a job I worked extremely hard at, when it appears that he himself was taking money from SI members. A bigger concern is that it is very unfortunate that he lost money for SI members.

Hope everything works out.

Mark
