<The system is set up so that you have to go around kissing IBB (Investment Banker Butt) all the time. Our companies have to throw them dollars to be slow, biased and inefficient. We should start the SIB Ethical Investment Bank.> Cool! As an honest and ethical person, I want to know... exactly how enjoyable will it be to constantly have my butt kissed?

What would you say if I suggested that the move in Neurocrine, apparently up to a more reasonable valuation, was in a very large part due to Vector and BBRS getting the word out months ago, and that half of the move was merely momentum joining in? The SI biogurus (of which I am an enthusiastic groupie) are surprisingly good at finding extreme biotech values--however that post of yours had a little whiff of 'we can do this all without you'. And that may be true--but I assume these fellas, BBRS, Vector, can move stocks primarily because they have clients who have a lot of money, and have not even heard of Silicon Investor. Just a thought, not a huge criticism. Just always overeager to share the first thing that pops into my head when I read your posts.
