Tim, Yoou made an excellent point there using Pat. These jerks.. pick on you and your ways.. leading people.. NOT ASTRAY.. saying the people should learn somthing.. not just follow your lead.. Yu can be a bit gruff but your HONEST! Well, i agree to a point.. except a lot of the people your helping are little people.. very limited amount of $$.. Just ripe for the picking/fleecing by the pros.. The big time p and d ers.. The phony bastards who would sell out there mothers for a few bucks.. Im kind of one of those beginners.. am about $5-8 k behind on some stoopid penny crap I bought.. I kind of laugh at myself.. but I can kind of afford it.. at least no ones gonna be hurt by it.. cept maybe Uncle Sam.. heh.. Excuse my writing.. I worked a lot when I shoulda been doing my homework.. Peace Fritz

I see while I was composing this, others have voiced some of my thoughts. Yup, Tim always wanted to help the little people. He?s done so since the thread began in Nov. 1998. He's unselfishly provided stocks for those who wanted to trade them. For the better part of the last three months, he's been working to provide a place with no noise. All that time he spent is down the tubes for the time being. Tim doesn't need to help the big guys, they can trade on their own. And I?m sure there are many big guys who trade along with Tim. But not all of those who read his thread can buy 1000 shares or put $50k in one stock. They are content with their 100-300 or whatever shares of Tim?s suggestions if they choose to trade them. They make their few hundred at a time, and pay their bills with it or save it to trade another day or increase their IRAs or use it for charitable purposes. The ones that got hurt by this "rat in the woodpile" are the small investors; those who lost their jobs, those who are too old to get a job and too young for Social Security, those that live in rural areas and are connected at 26,600 and couldn?t use trading programs if they wanted to, those who would not receive an email until four hours after it was sent. The traders with lots of money will continue to make more lots of money. I wonder how this "rat in the woodpile" can live with himself, look in the mirror or even sleep at night. I?ve always believed that in doing good, good things come back in return. Those that purposely cause trouble, well, I don't know about causing trouble, so I can't comment on that. I just hope this jerk will go far, far away, real, real soon. I have no idea how this blabbymouth can ever be stopped. Me, well, maybe I will get some of that tractor stock or maybe some ConEd. Looks like I'll put my trading money into my mutual funds. Don't bother writing nasty messages to me since I?m not going to read them anyway. I will only read messages from those I've corresponded with in the past. CarolynT

Tim, Sent you an email earlier today. I wanted to post here publicly to thank you for the phone call. It was great to be able to talk with you. As stated in the email, I did not join your new site for the reasons given. However, I'd like to add that a part of the reason is exemplified here on this thread. (which I'm obviously catching up on, given the post# that I'm replying to.) There is, for my taste, just too much 'chit chat' throughout the day that takes away from actual trading. I suppose if one is focused on only one or possibly two stocks though, that doesn't matter. FWIW, I simply found the style you set to be too narrow - this is merely my personal choice, as others obviously prefer that kind of focus. At any rate, I just wanted to wish you well, along with those who joined you there. See you all around here on SI...:-) Ellen
