The changes this week: R. How did you create all those neat bold headlines, and italicized answers? "See message number 17557, by Joel Yagoda. More formating = bbsinc.com or message number 33620. V. As there are some great stocks in the bio sector why aren’t some of them in the G and K Index? Biotechs are not eligible for the Gorilla & King Index. They can't be detected by GG metrics and don't behave in a pongid manner even after they become successful. - UF YHOO Don Mosher – messages 33891, 33893, 33895, 33896, and 33904 I.A.

Rambus may succeed brilliantly or it may go down in fire. Who knows. That's precisely my concern about Rambus, and why I don't feel it merits consideration for a gorilla hunter's portfolio yet No disagreement there. The Buckley post law-suit purchase strategy may be the way to go. I'm just a tad more aggressive. Unlike the majority of people I seem to experience greater pain from missing out on gains I could have had rather than feeling greater pain from loss. General psychological theory states that most people feel worse about losing something than they feel good about gaining the equivalent. Guess its all along the the array of risk adverseness (or seemingly lack thereof sometimes;) ) It sure makes for exciting discussions, though <gg>. Amen, amen. Exhaustedly, Tinker
