I've always liked Lemming cartoons. I found this one yesterday.



In a way, this helps me understand how GameStop went from having no earnings and a 52 week Low of $2.57/share to being a stock with no earnings and a 52 week High of $483/share.

Even Mr. Lichello's AIM would have struggled with the rapid movement of this stock. He felt a once/Month checkup was good enough back in the '70s and '80s when he first developed AIM. It's pretty hard to AIM at a fast moving target like GME.

Here's part of Mr. Lichello's "infomercial" from 1985. It was in 1986 that I first read his book. I did see this infomercial on Cable TV around 1988, I believe (very "late night" TV).

I did write to him a few times in the '90s but never had a reply. A friend and I were planning a trip to W.VA. to call on him when we heard of his passing. That was in February of 2001.

Best wishes,
OAG Tom
