The green monster? I find it sad that individuals set aside decent human behavior when faced with facts they find distasteful. Or which stand as a pin, too close to their overinflated egos. Some weave sticky webs of fiction in defense. Others run away and cower in corners insulated by protective covenants. Others mock the individuals who set forth the facts. And so on. Feel free to shoot the messenger Paul. It doesn't change the message. The Gorilla Game is more easily played ex-ante. Moore had this advantage when he wrote the book. And those who do not recognize this are operating with a handicap. Perhaps a more intelligent observation might have been that if SEBL does indeed have above-average long-term prospects then an investment in this Gorilla would do well against the T-Bill on a go-forward basis. That is, if SEBL is fairly priced. If not, then we may have to wait a while for this day of intersection to come. Gee.. maybe the whole thing hinges on whether the stock is fairly priced or not? How about we drop the Monty Python "It's only a Flesh Wound" script, down weapons and have a serious discussion about how to place a monetary value on Gorillas? A few people might even profit.

dang, Paul Pink Floyd not withstanding, your vitriolic attack on John seems like a bi-polar disconnect from the absolutely sterling article you wrote last week. I have ignored and unignored JS in the last 6 months and found the unignore to have been the better choice. I can appreciate negativism on this thread when carried out with intellectual integrity, but find ad hominem attacks distasteful even when posted by persons that I absolutely respect.
