Barry, Kicking him off for money solicitation isn't ridiculous, and if that is the reason, I guess I will have to reluctantly side with SI. There are all sorts of pesky problems with soliciting investment capital, and if SI wants to draw a sharp line, so be it. Apart from any moral or ethical issues, they would get sucked into any sour investment lawsuit so fast it would make your head spin - and SI would turn into a puff of smoke - and smoke is banned, come midnight, in California. -g-

Frankly, I'm kind of suprised a bright guy like brother Zeev did this in the first place, much less kept it up for several months (I tossed my miscellaneous messages in year-end house keeping, but I think I got his solicitation towards the end of summer.) I guess it just proves the old cliche that even smart people do some pretty dumb things.

I suspect that Zeev will be in web-jail for quite awhile, and he will not be allowed back on if SI knows who they are dealing with. Why? The lawsuit angle. I can just hear the plaintiff's attorney grilling Jill about how she let a known ........

Too bad it worked out this way, 'cause I enjoyed and respected Zeev's comments.

Regards, DWW
