Honey, you admit that it was not possible to be in a model portfolio after the November 2000 Marketimer and still own QQQ. Why do you call it "double-counting"? Do you think that subscribers were too stupid to realize that they couldn't hold onto any QQQ shares they had bought if they wanted to be in a model portfolio after that date?

Yo, Math....It isn't possible! That's what makes Brinker's duplicity so doggone outrageous. He uses TWO PAGES of the November 2000 issue trying to convince his subscribers to buy QQQQ "on weakness" with cash reserves raised from his January/August 65% sell signal, and then shows either/both his ignorance and deceptiveness by saying that he will not "include" this trade in his model portfolio record.

Honey, the November 2000 issue was in no way "deceptive" given that the information that QQQ was not in the model portfolios was CLEARLY shown on THREE DIFFERENT PAGES of that issue. It wasn't written in disappearing ink - it was on page two, it was on page seven, and it was on page eight. That's not deception, it's full disclosure. He told his subscribers the TRUTH that he was not including it. What kind of idiots do you think his subscribers are if you think that a plain and obvious TRUTH would somehow be deceiving to them?

Why are you so desperate to explain away a permanent part of the documented record?
