Re: Gilder I have never read the G-report and don't know much about the individual or his picks. Having read the debate on this thread I can only say that I hope his responses are not a twisting of words. I am fed up with politicians who conveniently play the word-game. I have no reason to doubt Mr. Gilder's statement that he personally had never acquired the stock or securities in question. In fact, I think it is honourable of him to have come out and made what I am sure he thinks is a clear and decisive statement on the matter. However, given the the public nature of the issue and the apparent lack of clarity, why not come out again and state unequivocably that he or any companies that he has an interest in has not owned the securities in question. I know that if I was in his shoes, I would do this quickly and then politely ask for either an apology or forgiveness. Blaireo

One of the companies that George Gilder admitted having a "fairly large" position is CNXT, which only went public in January 1999. He recommended it in his newsletter sometime in the fourth quarter of 1999, so from the time that he bought a significant position and when he sent out a recommendation is his newsletter was 9 months max, and probably more like 3 months. I think that he should add the standard disclaimer for each and every stock that he talks about is his newsletter. (i.e I own shares in the XYZ corp) Here is the link where he acknowledges that he has a fairly large position in CNXT: Message 13502817
