Hi SAM, I'll see if I can do it tomorrow. I've been thinking about some ideas for the site, but haven't had the time to get to it recently.

I took a quick look at your source code and didn't find much in the META files. For the search engines to be able to find your pages, you'll need to have some code they'll recognize. If you go to the Index page at my site and look at the source code, you'll see the stuff I put in to have usual searches find the site.

Some engines look only in the title line, some in the meta files. Some look ?????? :-) Most of the hits that I get from search engines have used the name "LICHELLO" to find my stuff, so make it prominent.

Yes, the counter is now working, I was #3!

The smallest AIM account I have started was around $3600 total including the Cash Reserve. It's also a "pure" mutual fund play. One fund the entire time. It's been very steadily growing and has been hard to get to do serious buying, but the use of "vealies" and very low Buy Resistance (SAFE) have kept it performing pretty well. Without looking, I believe the account is now worth around $12,000. It's on track for about a double every 5 years. It's actually done better in the last couple of years than in any period since I started it in the early '90s.

Thanks for taking the time to put a page together. The more of us there are telling our own tales, the more complete the whole story becomes.

Best regards, Tom
