Aw, good stretch, cup of coffee, and a great way to start the day. Let's see, who's on my shit list?

1. I am not a newsletter writer, I'm an investor (not trader), with no interest in the former.

2. If my motive was pump and dump, I haven't been very successful at it. Why would I pick an out of favor, neglected market like junior PMs for that? Tough, if almost impossible way to make a living. If I have any influence, it's only with a very small universe of people who I now consider friends in the community. Collectively, they don't have the buying power to affect your "Tokyo Joe" hypothesis.

You attack Claude a lot. Odd, as I see a guy with excellent integrity, and a hell of lot nicer guy than I. In fact unlike me, I haven't read even one ill word he's written toward you. I subscribe to his newsletter, and see him as having very little influence on the prices of stocks he recommends. Over time, most people on these threads can sort out the bad apples. It's a bit like the drill (the truth machine). How do you think you stack up on that score? Everybody else just wrong?

3. Do I have a big, attention seeking ego? Yes, so what? Am I insincere? You don't know me at all, if you think that. Would an insincere person purchase, and then walk into a sixty unit apartment building full of druggies and criminals, knock on their doors, and say, "It's moving day!" And, wouldn't an insincere person hide under a handle like "gold tutor"?

4. Your three year old SWC call, and the fact that you have something to offer here? Congrats, nobody has ever called you an idiot. Perhaps you do have something to offer? I just haven't seen it yet, as you are not on ignore.

5. Bob Johnson and nobleness. Read my remark. I didn't say he was noble, only that I respect his personal philosophy and tolerance level. I'm just different, and like most people don't operate on an open ended reservoir of good will. And if you keep at it like you have, I'm a guy who will turn on you aggressively and in a flash, and that's what's happened here. I would suggest in your case, that you should also expect others to turn on you with regularity. In fact, I'll predict you will wear Bob out in time, as he is a guy who needs intelligent interaction.
