I'm surprised that you didn't try to provide a link between GG and Jack Ruby... Anyway, GG posted this at his forum today: >>All my GX shares were bought at market and I have sold none. In the last year, my wife, my mother, my brother and my church have bought further shares. Of course, I do not accept any gratuities from companies I write about (rejecting board positions in Ciena and Terabeam among many others, together with associated equity that would be worth scores of millions at a minimum today). --GG << Time to give this conspiracy stuff a rest, I'd say. The man is being falsely accused. Crowe was just trying to defend his company, its biz plan, its shareholders (and, last not but not least, the value of his stock options). He gets paid to do that. He's the lackey, not GG. Besides, he's a construction guy. His telecosmic vision came kind of third hand, as I recall. His Kiewit boss, Walter Scott, got it from Bill Gates, of all people, as I recall...

Pat~ Your evidence shows only that the fortuitous timing of investments in GG's picks resulted in the generation of fortunes. Timing is everything, no? Cheers, Wooly

You're saying it is random chance that Gilder, Gagnon, Howe buys 244,785 shares of AVNX on 3/31/00? insidertrader.com. This purchase represents 2/3 of all institutional buying in AVNX for the last quarter. And according to you he reads your newsletter and thus invests in companies you mention. However, your newsletter mentions AVNX on April 24. So it was just a wild guess by GGH to invest $36,000,000 (245k shares x $150 price on 3/31) in AVNX ... Ok, let's see... AVNX closing price on: [3/31] 151 3/4 [4/24] 76 3/8 They sure reaped a bundle on that. Ali
