you mean the "real" Gorilla Game is what the thread talks about, not what the book talks about?

Well, we all who are serious here have paid quite a bit of attention to what is *between* the covers, rather than stopping at the jacket -- jackets are marketing hype, not the substance. Lots of us, in fact, have also read the other books like Chasm and Tornado since those clearly provide the background for what is discussed in GG. And, we have paid attention to subsequent statements from the authors.

But, yes, I think this thread is a better expression of applying the GG concepts to investing than was the book. Not surprising, actually, since we have had several years of real world practice to learn from.
