Oh, and one more thing. His stock picks are usually really bad (e.g. EXDS), but it takes guts to put them out there, which I respect him for. Aw hell, I had something important to say about that, but I had 2 power failures in the middle of writing something insightful. So I guess I'll say nothing at all.

At the risk of turning off all power in Quebec, I am going to attempt to write this post again. Yes that is exactly the point. A@P, tokyoJoe, Big dog, Jenna, Tim Luke, me, others.... Some of the names make you want to punch a whole in the wall. But they all had the guts to post what they were doing on the internet. People forget that what they do with that kind of information is their own responsibility. It's easy to blame someone else for our failures, and very hard to accept that you, yourself, was responsible for it. If Tim bought a stock that went down, so what? He made a bad decision. If you bought it too, who's to blame? Him? No, you were the one that sent in the buy order. There are many stock "gurus" out there. It's easy to bash the people that post the information. Easier than blaming yourself for making a wrong decision. I have more to say about that but will have to end here in fear of another power failure.
