Climber and all,

I couldn't find that piece using the Fool's search function either, but if AOL's search function gets back in order I may yet be able to find it. In the mean time, the folks around here might be interested in a piece I penned about Gemstar way back in December, 1996. I believe this is the piece Stew saw that brought the two of us in touch with each other.

If I can say so myself, the piece is pretty good, thanks mostly to my 14-year-old friend who co-wrote it. (Climber, I'm still in touch with Brent.)

Anyhow, enjoy!

Welcome to the thread, Climber. Any friend of Mike's is bound to be an asset to the Gorilla gang. BTW, we call him Merlin around here since he has a magical touch when it comes to stock picking. If you look at post #833 you'll see he enriched us all <literally> by pointing out that Qualcomm had just settled the Ericsson lawsuit and was a potential Gorilla. Now that's practical magic!

Mike's taught us all a lot about Gorilla Gaming, stock evaluation, and good fellowship. Thanks for firing him so we could grab him on the rebound <vbg>.
