YOU SEEM BENT ON MAKING A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLEHILL. No, that's GG's specialty. Pat

Greed wrote While the company may be bound both in its regulatory filings and other notice filings, including even press releases to be quite specific and precise in all descriptions, the GTR is clearly not such a document. So what do you get for your $295 subscription? Is it unreasonable to expect specific and precise information? *You are attempting to convert a generalized description...* No - that isn't what Pat was doing. Pat was comparing Gilder's description of the situation of AVNX plant and workforce with the companies reglatory filings. Gilder has come off quite badly in this exchange. His credibility has suffered. He hasn't offered a rebbutal to Pat, which I find surprising, unless, of course, Pat is right and has found George with his trousers around his ankles.

GG HAS NO CLOTHES George Gilder makes false statements. When challenged, and asked to provide his evidence, he cannot provide any. MOTIVE? Only GG knows for sure. IMO, his cause is George Gilder's ego at a minimum, and perhaps his pocketbook too. Based on his pontification and arrogance, we can reasonably conclude the ego-factor. Since he will not respond to my reasonable request for full disclosure, we cannot easily KNOW about the pocketbook issue. However, since he has refused to state he has NO financial interest in ANY of the companies he TOUTS, it is reasonable to conclude he DOES. MINDLESS DEFENDERS There are a number of mindless GG defenders on the board, who apparently see nothing wrong with false, or at least reckless statements on his part. In fact, they encourage him to not respond to requests for full disclosure. This defies any sound business logic, and is well into the CULT domain. Volumes have been written on the NEED many people have for demigods. In the beginning was NOT the word of GG! I guarantee, the universe was based on something a bit more precise than that! I apologize to those reasonable minds on this board for posting again, after having said I had given up. I should not have given up. It is just as wrong for me to NOT set the facts straight, as it is for GG to "bend" them. This is how people like him survive to prey on the gullible. -Own
