Thanks for a very interesting introduction, dd. I'll look forward to your active involvement on the thread. Your background as a "crusty aging Wall Street fellow" should yield some interesting insights into market mechanics.

>> Instead of Pe's, PEG's and Ebitdas, I know question such things as barriers to entry, switching costs and open proprietary standards (still a tough one for me). I draw pictures of chasms and discuss technology adoption cycles.

Once you start drawing pictures, you're hooked <gg>.

Bob,

Your post should be cool post of the month!

I will take credit for the bioengineered seeds on Mike's prospective gorilla market list

So that was you! Glad to see that you've now seen the error of your ways. :) Wish I had seen mine before the Citrus debacle. :(

I really did not grasp Seibel (although Mike was as equally persuasive)

Apparently not. Glad to have you with us in a participatory basis. Keep the lurk-mode switch in the "off" position from now on.

dday: Thanks for the following:

"It was largely the very persuasive posts by Chaz that led me to overweight QCOM a few years back."

Hope that worked out well for you, as seems likely.

Those were the days and Mike's Fool/AOL thread was a joy.

But agree that GG is a valuable insight.

BTW You should know that here I am Cha2 (altho Chaz elsewhere).

Best and welcome.
