So, with so many people curious about the content of the newsletter, and such a swift means to share the information, it is foolish to think that it won't be posted. But what is even more foolish is the notion on this message board that people are clamoring to find out what's in the newsletter. As far as the general public is concerned, there is an ocean of market-timers, and Brinker's just one of them. Brinker might be labeled by them as just another buy-on-the-dips adviser. And there have been plenty of those advisers going around, on CNBC and elsewhere. Almost nobody in the general public cares about Brinker's signals. That is the truth, like it or not. Of course, if he is right this time, it would be a different matter in the future. By then his reputation would have been made. However, that is all in the future. Not now.

Bill, This has been a popular discussion item for quite some time. Bob's feeling is, if MT were delivered by email, it would be freely, quickly, and easily pirated. That may or may not be so, but there are other ways to distribute MT electronically, and more securely. I wrote Bob Jr. my suggestion a couple of years ago, and he said he'd think about it. I guess he decided not to do it (yet?). For those who are curious, my idea was to write a little app that would allow subscribers to read or print out an electronic copy of MT, but not make copies of it. For most of us, that would be fast, easy, and as secure as the current method. And I'm sure that the cost of developing the app could be covered by a small premium for this faster service. There are probably several other solutions that would also satisfy everyone. In the meantime, it's interesting that the sell signal was available on the web as early as Jan 10 ... or maybe earlier, but that's the earliest I found. Ken
