uh??? and which one of those posts of mine that you spent hours digging up and linking was about you or your silly little pathetic thread??? oh yea, none of them were. LOL as for shining a light, i could really care less whether you link 3 or 80 of my posts, but this obsession you have with me is a little sick and twisted. you're one sick puppy.... -ng-

>>Of course, they may just be voting with their feet. SI’s post count continues to dwindle.)<< The reasons you give have nothing to do with why SI's posts are declining. It's the entire sector and you knew that. But then, you always have to justify your views.. Per a recent WSJ article..SI held up better than most. >>In March 2000, when activity was at its peak, users spent about 100 minutes a month at Silicon Investor, 90 minutes at Raging Bull, 35 minutes at Yahoo! Finance and 30 minutes at the Motley Fool, according to Nielsen/NetRatings. But by December 2000, that activity was sharply reduced. Time spent by users at Silicon Investor was down 25% to 75 minutes a month, Yahoo! Finance was down 46% to 19 minutes a month and the Motley Fool was down 60% to 12 minutes a month. Raging Bull's activity had fallen so far it was below Nielsen/NetRatings' reporting cutoff of about 100,000 visitors. Stock-chat sites must evolve from being a forum for the day-trading crowd, analysts say, if they want to overcome the difficulties they will face when the atmosphere on Wall Street sours and scares away short-term players.<<
