So Bill!! what changed your mind in less than 24 hours to go from this. To: Darrell Youngblood (5063 ) From: Bill on the Hill Saturday, Jan 23 1999 11:32PM ET Reply # of 5101
<<<I see, that they have started a new thread called "The New ISSM". The day traders want their profits at the expense of anyone else who might get hurt on this scam.>>>
David, did you mean the company is a scam? Now if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. Besides, how dare you insinuate that people who claim to be headed towards making 40,000 dollars next week will be riding on the backs of the gullible masses! Sounds like a lesson out of Moral and Dogma by Pike from the 1800's. Or better yet the Babylonian money changers. Markets have always had the bottom feeders that pray on the uneducated and unaware. Morality is a tool to be used by them to achieve their own selfish goals.
The internet has created a new breed of opportunists which are willing and waiting for the next picking. The quick in and out make for easy money. Dire Straits said it so well, "Money for nothing and the checks are free."

Not altogether wrong or unethical. Lots of grey area here. What is important in the dissemination of disinformation is that it is believed and that disclaimers are included. We are in the new age of disclaimer. If we state that it is our opinion it means "I am not responsible if you believe this". The proverbial ticket out of jail we got when playing monopoly. Funny how life imitates game and vice versa.
What I find interesting in all of this is the thread being woven into the fabric of falsehood. How many times will it take me to learn from my mistake of emotional investing? It is lessons like the one on this URL which make me realize what chances I have being ignorant and how self awareness and education will prevent me from being an unwilling participant.

Then when we challenge the perpetrators of the emotional exuberance we are confronted with an onslaught of whether we have brains enough to participate in the game, about ones manhood or another sexual innuendo no matter how vicious.

I can only wonder if my mother were reading these threads how she would react to such displays of English verbage? Indeed I am beginning to wonder to what depth of moral depravity our world has sunk to. The problem is that we hide behind these keys. The solution is that SI has required us to pay for the admission which has created a paper trail with which we can track the source.
Not only is posting on these threads a viable vehicle for moral ineptitude but anonymous public display of ones immorality is available. That is why I will not post on Yahoo. Anonymity works for those seeking a higher path but I am afraid that is not what we face here.
In summary I have learned to keep my finger off of the purchase key until I am able to find the truth. I have also learned that if I respond with truth I will be faced with silence. I won't wallow in the mud. I will not let the heritage my mother and father worked so hard to protect be taken into this kind of decline.
"Do not fear the truth unless you are confronted with it"
Someone must have said that before?

Angelique,
I did not keep a copy of the site and did not forward it. I do have a clear memory of the site and even went to the registry area for information on some technology to be forwarded to me. I registered for mailers and information. The technology if it truly exists would be in GREAT demand.
The way the site was pulled it makes me think that perhaps it was a beta release that was being test driven and was not for public comsumption. If it beta and the site returns as a fully functional page and the company provides product as described it could be a very good investment over long term.
My look at the site was fairly complete and I fully filled out the form and entered it. I have not received any information in return from the firm. I have also E-mailed all of the addresses I could find on the development page and on the webmasters home page.
David could be right. This could be an excellent opportunity. That should be able to stand on its own merit. He just needs to realize that shell games were not invented last week.
VERY STRANGE INDEED!!!!!!!
