Don't sweat the small stuff gilder powercosm boy. Just keep on searching and keep on thinking and keep on learning and keep on posting. Only those with small minds will object. I think you should change your SI name. It is too long. And you are right. Anyone on this board who refers to anyone else on this board as a "moron" most likely hit the wrong button. He or she was really looking for the Yahoo boards. Good luck and good investing. You won't go wrong long term with George Gilder. His letter put me into QCOM in November, 1996, and I am still long QCOM.

Dear GPB: I just want to say I was not offended in any way in your apparently honest, certainly polite post. Dont be thin skinned, just ignore posters who are obnoxious to you. There is always that "10%" in anything in life. JDN

GPB, Welcome to SI. Many people missed the Power Report in the Fall, even some long time SI posters. The Powercosm thread is open for discussion of its merits. I haven't subscribed to it, because I was not convinced with the AMSC discussion.
"Moron" is something I would have expected from a Yahoo board.
Yes it is. Several people bought into Gilders picks at the market's high and are unhappy. Read Steve Harmon's thread and you'll see more nastiness. Generally, most people on SI are helpful and not rude.
Jack
