Mr FakeDija, who obviously has not capitulated, asks: >>--I do not understand that question. If you will explain to me what he got credit for that he didn't recommend, I will do my best to answer. In response to this remark by me: >>>><<How does a charlatan get so much credit for stuff that he doesn't even recommend?>> Geesh, that one was so poorly written by me, I'm almost embarrassed! It's a little ass-backwards (HAH!) , but I'll try to rephrase what I meant, and not what I typed. What I meant to say was, over the past few years, several people gave Brinker credit for some good calls. No argument from me. These same people (Butter for example) then say that they did not follow Brinker's recommendations to go back in in March 2003, or follow other recommendations lock-step. My point is that these people give Brinker high marks IN RETROSPECT. They did not trust him enough to follow his guidance at the time the recommendations were made. So why should Brinker get credit from these people, the same people who never had the guts to follow his recommendations. I don't get it. My beef is not against Brinker, but actually the shills that fit this mould. So change the original question from "How does a charlatan get so much credit for stuff that he doesn't even recommend?" to Why does the charlatan get so much credit for recommendations that his own shills don't even follow". Brinker may have been right, but there was no trust in him.
