I would argue with you and say you have posted so many lies or BS speculation about something you know nothing about, but I've learned that when arguing with an insane, homeless person on the corner holding a silly sign makes it hard for onlookers to distinguish between the sane and insane person. I think your devotion to Brinker is "insane" in light of the facts but you are welcome to your beliefs just as the Moonies are free to pray to whomever they choose. As you have noticed, I have tried to let you have your say here without saying you are very wrong. It is to a man's honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel (Proverbs 20:3). The "trash talk" from anonymous posters started with Brinker.... posting here as Don Lane that they later changed to Mister Topes... where he Trashed ANYONE who didn't worship Brinker. It continued on his own discussion boards after he tried to get me to delete questions on `101 a decade ago that questioned his ethics re UTEK. I suggested he answer the charge, which I believed at the time to be false. When I refused to delete the question, he said he would remove all links on his site recommending 101 which he did followed by trash talk on his board about my newsletter, reading list, and '101. I was wrong, he was getting compensation from UTEK at the same time he was recommending it to national TV and radio audiences without disclosing the relationship. The attacks on my character and attempts to get me thrown off message boards started days after that incident and they continue today. I still use my real name here and elsewhere to say what I say about Brinker. The others have stopped using their real names because they were harassed by Brinker supporters and feared for their personal safety. Many of them had calls to their employeers about what they posted on message boards. InvesTing's office staff was harassed with potty-mouth phone calls. Several of my long term subscribers and/or friends told me their bosses were called to complain about what they posted on message boards. One told me his boss hated Brinker and his show so they had a good laugh but was asked to not use office equipment to store stuff about Brinker to remove liability. But since you enjoy the look of sand in your hair, I hope you continue to enjoy the view from having your head in a hole.
