Thanks Bob! We'll be truly honored, and will definitely keep our fingers crossed for you... But some of us on this thread have had our fingers crossed so tightly, for so long now (regarding the future of this company), that they've become completely cramped up and have locked into that position... making typing a real pain in the... (oh, you know what I mean). But this too will pass...someday, some how, some way. Good luck to you, and all the old GNET gang! Roger

SI Bob - Welcome to RB ! SI fired you ? That's just fine. Hope RB has the sense to offer you a job on RB. They seem to be savvy marketing people. And you'll bring hundreds of subscribers from SI. Just one more step in the death of SI. It had to happen. The demise of SI is just so obvious from a marketing point of view, it's difficult to understand how people can even waste time talking about it. Most of us were faithful from the beginning and then left in droves as more and more was done to chase us away. Rarely was a viciously loyal consumer franchise so wasted. RB please don't make the same mistake ! But if you are for sale, there's a group of us in Europe would love to buy you. I don't know how anyone else feels, but personally I find two stock-chat boards is too many. It's going to be winner takes all. And no point in SI Bob trying to set up his own - he just won't reach critical mass. Welcome to Red and Khaki, SI Bob. For those who want to read the whole story: public.wsj.com ragingbull.lycos.com
