From jriley14 on RB: <<Hello everyone, I just bought in with 15K shares. I left ECNC and moved over to TSIG. I heard rumors that this could explode like ECNC did. Any thoughts!>> Mr. Riley, welcome aboard. Yes, I have thoughts. Would you mind telling us a bit more about yourself? 1) Please give us a brief summary of the DD you have performed up to now. If the answer is "none", would you mind giving us the cumulative net total of your investments over the last 2 years. That is, are you in the red or black? 2) Would you describe your time horizon as a) late this afternoon; b) a few days; c) a week; d) longer. 3) What is the source of your rumors (in general terms)? 4) Would you like to hear some of the mind-boggling, stupid rumors that have appeared on this thread over the last 2 years? Would you want to know which ones actually came to pass? Regards, Suzanne

<<What would think if you received several recent PM's or "private messages" from people on SI that told you certain people knew about the financing 1 week prior to the news being announced>> I think "SO WHAT" Every day the TV networks think it's a big deal to beat the competition to a story by three minutes. They cry EXCLUSIVE! EXCLUSIVE! YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST! Then a couple of days later Time or Newsweek or whatever publishes a balanced story. With some distance, there is time for objective discussions. The short term trader chases. The true long term investor doesn't care about minutes, hours, days, weeks or months. The world of year 2000 is getting the information edge, what ever it takes. So how many LT TSIG investors were born this year? Reality check. ztect, I respect your dedication, insight, enthusiasm, sharing etc etc, but as a fellow long term investor, WHO CARES? John
