Rillinois - Thanks - I knew you could come up with some more links to classic posts from "The Rillinois Collection".

Your skill at "the cut-up" never ceases to amaze me. You are definitely nominated as a candidate to carve the turkey at our next Thanksgiving Dinner.

BTW, my QQQ's cost me $71, not $83. But I know you are correct about so unfortunate souls who bought in the 80's.

On your "fools that are victims of a shark attack" assertion, to convince me he deliberately mislead his subscribers, you need to demonstrate that Brinker KNEW IN ADVACNE before he issued that unfortunate and wrong October 2000 "buy immediately" bulletin that QQQ was going drop below $65 and keep dropping. Otherwise, it remains a wrong call in my mind. Same as regards to the UTEK call and any other if his calls that did not work out (I'm sure you have all of the in "The Rillinois Collection").

Can you explain what his motive could be to knowingly and deliberately mislead subscribers off the cliff? I just don't get how that works. I guess when you boil it all down, a reasonable answer to this question is where it all turns.

Re: one should buy QQQ's immediately at 83,

Since you and others continue to misquote Brinker I have to belabor the point I've made before: Brinker never said this.

"I was one of the first, if not the first, to see the impending QQQ fiasco well before it was popular to do so...."

Too bad you waited until QQQ trade was already seriously underwater.

The first time you posted here about it was November 11th. It was down 14% at that time, but you did not warn against buying, choosing instead to complain about him moving the benchmark.

Your next post on the subject was on November 22nd, when you called the trade a "debacle." Unfortunately it was already down 20% at that time.
