Razor and brk....Chris and EyeDr.......(FWIW) Russell and the gang. Ok...I really am not disagreeing with either of you. Here I am getting into this when I really shouldn't (I realize I put myself right in when I wrote my last post), I am neutral, and I do see both sides of the coin. (My excuse..I'm a mother and my job is to scold <gg>) I'm sorry Chris. Perhaps my comments were out of line....the way I really feel is that I a tired of hearing all the harsh, nasty, rude, and ugly comments, and you are right...this is GNET. As an SI life member, I am not happy with the banner, link, however you want to classify it. I do have an account with Datek, but do not use it, I only keep cash with them because trading is less than acceptable. Now on the other hand if I were able to choose my link I would have ready access to my online broker. Our whole community became in an uproar due to the silence from management. Our voices were heard about the color, and that was quietly changed. Now there is a dribble of feedback from management via this thread and the 'Welcome'thread, but the explanation is insufficient and only responding to tons of questions. Personally I feel they should have been prepared with this type of response and would have had a statement prepared announcing the link, banner, or whatever explaining their purpose, intent and reasoning. Not just throw it out and let's see what happens. It may have been received differently if presented in a different light. As a GNET stockholder, I appreciate income on my SI. I am well aware that I will never pay any additional funds, as my membership is lifetime. Eventually funds will need to be generated from some source. Finally, to be perfectly honest. The blue, purple, lilac, or whatever line does not bother me.
