Hi George, there always seems to be a few who screw it up for everyone else. Really appreciated reading your comments and found them to be much more accurate and useful than the various useless so called analysts newsletters. Much success. Jimmy

George - I think you've validated one of my pet peeves of this game, which is the abuse, misuse and misunderstanding of the newsletter writers. I've kept my eyes on the calls from the various paid pundits over the years and have learned more from them then I could learn in a lifetime of SI. What subscribers pay for is information and nothing else. You don't pay for some guy you've never met to hold your hand and take control of your financial future for you. I've never seen a guy in your business put out a negative report or make a wrong call and not get savaged by the children for it. I used to subscribe to a guy who begged his people to buy AQP at 0.60 and many more times under $2.00. A couple of months later he turned out to be very wrong on Corriente and was instantly attacked from all sides even though if you would have followed his calls to the letter on the two stocks you would have made a killing. I guess the bottom line is the astonishing lack of personal responsibilty that seems to be everywhere these days. Why blame yourself when there's a newsletter writer nearby? Anyway I'm rambling. Keep it up, I for one will read everything you or anyone else writes and then make up my mind by myself.

George, I have not commented in any way on the SUBSTANCE of your postings. If you feel you gave away for two years yours ideas, that was your choice. If you chose now to charge for them now, it is you choice, and as a free enterpriser, you are entitled to it, and I wish you good luck. I do object to you and anyone else carrying out commercial self-promotion of SI. Also, if you want to give your research to some and not to others, that's also your choice, but to it in private manner, which you can do easily on SI, and not waste posting in the process. Thats all.. Happy investing, andras
