You are right on all accounts. But that's not what AG said, nor how he said it. I suppose Dale could have MEA CULPA'd in front of the whole world, but just telling us his doubts and when he sold was enough for me, and if it was not enough for AG, he could have said so more effectively. I like SI because, for the most part, i's posters don't take the YAHOO boards' low road approach--with the exception of AG. I read AG and this board in spite of his BS style, because I've learned to listen to the message rather than the delivery.

BTW, I'm a fan of Herb's and have had some nice correspondence with him re. co's like AREM. For me, AREM's last coffin nail was when it originally announced the Bulgarian contract. It just didn't make sense that a country in the kind of mess it made for itself has that kind of $$$ for stuff like software. And I couldn't figure out how anyone would be able to prove anything in trying to do DD . There's also a contrarian observation I've made (not original with me) that when the company and individual investors scream the loudest at detractors, that's a good time to run away (or short).
