RosesEC, I am still having problems with the rich, ever-changing fable that is known as "Mary's Call." Perhaps I am having comprehension problems, but can you point out in your original transcript where this is disclosed? "when she had told him she bought them at $55 on his advice?" PS: On the Yahoo/UTEK board that ifishiam2006 chap points out (correctly) that her stock purchase could have occurred as far back as 1999. At first I thought that he was "full of it", but he was spot on (with respect to a split-adjusted price basis.)

Honey said: Ms. queen said: "I agree that he interrupts. so he can "cut to the chase". Who are you quoting Ms. queen? BOB BRINKER? I don't recall ever hearing him say that is the reason he rudely interrupts people. Where did I say that Brinker said that is the reason? I don't know of any talk show host that doesn't interrupt his callers. If they didn't, some callers would go on forever. "Rudely" is ONCE AGAIN, your OPINION. BECAUSE, he absolutely NEVER "cut to the chase" of Mary's question. He told her he could not recommend selling the Q's she bought back in December 2000 or January-February 2001 unless they got to $42. Wasn't that sweet, when you consider they were selling for about $38 when he said that. And isn't he a card for insinuating that she would make money at $42 when she had told him she bought them at $55 on his advice? "Insinuating" again? I didn't see anywhere in the "verbatim" transcript where he said or even insinuated she'd make money at $42. As I recall without going back, he said he wasn't comfortable with $38. He never gave her a yes or no. It should not be expected. And if he did, and it went the other way, I expect that you and others would be screaming about his "scam" even louder, if that's possible. Actually, I expect there would be those who'd be screaming about "selling newsletters" no matter which way it went. No, Ms.Queen, BOB BRINKER was doing everything in his power to keep Mary from mentioning that she had bought those Q's back when BOB BRINKER was screaming that there was a "countertrend rally in the Nasdaq" coming --back in those previously mentioned dates. It's your OPINION that "he was doing everything in his power to keep Mary from mentioning" anything. If Mary bought them at or near the time of the bulletin, they were not at $55. If she waited until they were down to $55, sounds like she made her own decision then, doesn't it, and didn't go right out and plunk down the "one third of their portfolio" some of you like to claim so many people did. Do you understand what "opinion" means? Can you get your head around that?
