For good financial and investing feedback SI has no equal... its members are generous and honest and often have first hand knowledge of the business they are talking about. Its great.. I agree that that's where the "real" value of SI is. It has no peer in that regard. Turning that value into cash is do-able, but the current owners of the site lack the ability to do that or even the ability to acquire that ability. SI will exist for exactly as long as INSP is willing to lose money on it. It can be made back into a profit-center, but it won't happen. It could be kept around for sentimental reasons, despite the cost, but that also won't happen. SI's success became possible in large part because of Prodigy, and in the same way, some other site will have success handed to it because of SI. Grub
